Problem with hiding cursor in web player under firefox

Unity Engine

[Moved from ‘Scripting’]

I’m using a custom mouse pointer, so I’m setting Screen.showCursor = false to hide the os mouse pointer.

The problem is that this doesn’t work in firefox under mac - as soon as I leave the web player screen area, the os pointer reappears and stays visible when I enter web player again (even when I set showCursor to false in every frame).

The only workaround I’ve found so far, is to set showCursor to true and to false just after that, which forces the visibility of the cursor to refresh (so hides it), but it often causes the cursor to flicker.

Is there any solution to making it work as it should in the first place?

P.S. It’s so annoying how firefox handles any 3d rendered content, flash and such - there are always problems with flickering while scrolling, tabbed browsing, etc. And this is supposed to be the best browser out there Confused

That’s just the tip of the iceberg, try going to a new tab and watch your mouse disappear in the area where the web player is[No fix, all browsers, topic].

How come you want to hide the cursor outside the web player area context?

you could increase the size of the web player.

I’m also having the same problem as well in Firefox/Chrome, hopefully it will get fixed soon enuf

Seems like firefox now totally ignores all hiding of the cursor, has anyone found a fix for hiding cursors in firefox.
