But, even if we can eliminate the cursor throught X, or Performer,
the man page for "sir_cursor" said:
NAME
sir_cursor - Sirius Video cursor display too
DESCRIPTION
Sirius Video does not display the graphics cursor on its video output.
It does this intentionally; for most applications, you do not want the
cursor to accidentally appear on your output. However, in some particular
cases (such as recording a training video of a software application) you
would like to show the cursor. The application sir_cursor draws a cursor
in either the overlay or the popup graphics planes that follows the
actual cursor location.
In fact usually we need the cursor, to drag, move objects, even in the video
window of the display.
Maybe someone has experienced this problem ?
Maybe someone has found a better solution than use a Invisible cursor in this
window ?
