Deleting the pointer arrow head thingy

Is there some way to take away the pointer completely during a game. I'm taking the mouse off the screen using x and y varibles and view.where, but it would be alot easier to just delete

You can not hide the mouse pointer in turing (althougth there used to be an old comand that claimed it whould but did not). At best you can draw an image under the pointer. Turing also can not move the mouse that i know of.

It maybe posiable to make a vb script to hide or move the pointer and then have turing use System.exec to run the vb script.

^what he said^

at best Turing sux at that kind of thing, so generally, if you want to change something handled by your OS, chances are the answer is no Sad (at least in Turing)
