Hiding remote cursor

Post by User_Not_Present »

Hi,

Is there an option that works in 1.4.0.9 to hide the remote cursor and only display the full (arrow) local cursor instead of a dot?

The following options used to provide that effect:

cursorshape=1
noremotecursor=1
localcursor=2

But now I'm getting both the local and remote cursor which is a bit distracting as one lags the other.

Edit: FYi, remote side is W10 LTSC patched up to today, intel graphics.

Thanks!

You need to set it on the viewer site.
(*) Track remote cursor Local
() Let Remote server deal with the mouse
() Don't show remote cursor

None of these options work to hide the remote cursor.

Setting 'track remote cursor local' makes the remote cursor update very very slowly but it is still displayed

The other two have basically the same effect.
