How to handle mouse cursor (show/hide) inside a chrome.app.window

[Luigino De Togni]

Hi,

i'm searching for a way/chrome api to hide the mouse cursor inside a chrome window (my project is a packaged app)

Somebody can suggest me a solution?

Thank you very much

If you're writing a full-screen game, you can capture the mouse.  I've not heard of a way to simply hide the cursor when it's over a window though.

I think i have found a simple solution using css like

html {

    cursor: none;

}

I think better/other documentation is here

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/WebAPI/Pointer_Lock

but seems (during my tests) mouse hiding is allowed only by a user interaction and not automatically, example by window.onLoad
