Description Demoscene Passivist 2010-09-07 05:50:54 CEST 
Theres currently no way to disable/modify the cursor in a NEWT window. This is especially disturbing in NEWTs fullscreen mode, as theres always the mouse cursor visible. 

So my request for NEWT enhancemnt is: Either implement a method to completely disable the cursor (at least in fullscreen mode) or add a setCursor() method similar to AWTs Component.setCursor() method.

Implemented via 3 features:

    NEWT: Add pointer features: visibility, confined and warp (move)
    
    visibility:
      - set pointer visible or invisible
    
    confined:
      - confine pointer to window, or not
    
    warp:
      - set mouse position within the window
