Description

  • Haxe version: 4.1.4
  • Flixel version: 4.8.1
  • OpenFL version: 9.0.2
  • Lime version: 7.8.2
  • Affected targets: Cursor

Code snippet reproducing the issue:

Referring to the 3 attached .txt files for the program in which this occurred.


Observed behavior:
When going into full screen mode (in my case on a 1920x1080 screen) and when forcing my cursor into
any border of the screen, the cursor glitches back and forth into the systems cursor...

This is not a game-braking bug, but still looks a little unprofessional
Please fix this issue, at least before i plan on releasing any software built on HaxeFlixel

What would fix this issue is a argument that permanently changes the cursors state in full screen mode when
the game-screen is active

Besides this little issue i am very excited about using this free to use stylish developing tool

Expected behavior:

I expected the cursor to stay as the custom cursor when pushing it against the borders

Research direction

Start by reviewing the attached Main.txt and PlayState.txt reproductions, along with AssetPaths.txt, and confirm the cursor transition when the game enters fullscreen and reaches a screen border. Trace the fullscreen cursor handling from the reproduction into the relevant engine entry point. Done means the custom cursor remains visible at the screen edges in fullscreen mode without system-cursor flicker.
