Hello,
I've found a bug in Adobe AIR for the Mac. Mouse.hide() doesn't work.
Apparently this is a known bug that has been around for a while and
there's a work around here:

This works ok as long as you start the AIR file from the Finder by
clicking. However, if you set it to start automatically at login the
Mouse.hide still
doesn't work. I've tried using an applescript file which runs on
login to start the application after a delay and it still doesn't work.
This is a critical piece of functionality for any touchscreen kiosk
so if anyone has any other suggestions I'd be very keen to know
(I'm more of a Windows type than a Mac one so there may be something
obvious I've missed).
BTW I've tried this on OS 10.4 and OS 10.6, AIR 1.52 and AIR 2.0
which are all much the same.
Everything works fine on Windows XP.
Cheers
Joe
