Just the opposite of the Track Mouse effect. Opportunity I guess could be a desktop effect plugin. Even on the lockscreen, the mouse cursor stays on when the login prompts are hidden. I want to turn this off to reduce burn in of static elements on my OLED. Turning the screen off with dpms works except in current gpu/screen setup it glitches my screen out. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Other Wayland compositors, such as Sway, have implemented it long ago. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

For example, while reading PDFs, or browsing webpages (I use firefox with a vi-mode addon, so there are reasonably long intervals where I don't use the mouse and thus don't want to see it) the cursor sometimes gets in the way if I'm using only the keyboard (if it comes to rest on top of a link or a button, it counts as the cursor hovering over the object). Re. why it should be in the display manager, my understanding was that the window manager has complete control of the display in the wayland session, so I assumed that such a feature could only be implemented in the compositor. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
