Description Dmitri Vedenko 2009-02-05 08:46:31 UTC 
I'm using revision 4415 of SDL 1.3 library (with OpenGL) and expirience two bugs with mouse. Probably I'm doing something wrong, but anyway, here they are.

1. SDL_ShowCursor seems to have absolutely no effect in any combination of video/input grab mode
2. SDL_GrabInput(SDL_GRAB_ON) works only in full screen mode
Comment 1 Sam Lantinga 2009-02-16 22:09:37 UTC 
Yes, cursor support isn't implemented yet.  This has to be fixed before a final release.

Comment 3 Vern Jensen 2011-01-24 15:05:06 UTC 
I'm running into this issue as well, except on MacOS X 10.6.6... SDL_ShowCursor(false) has no effect.

Given that this was reported Feb 2009, any hope of getting it implemented soon? If not, I'll work around. (Aiming for game release in 2 months.)
Comment 4 Sam Lantinga 2011-01-24 15:57:00 UTC 
Yes, I'm planning to spend a couple of days this week on the cursor code.
Comment 5 Sam Lantinga 2011-03-11 18:27:20 UTC 
This is fixed in the latest snapshot:
