I think this should be closed as a duplicate of 02091. We can add a note to 02091 about the clickable artworks, if you like, but they are definitely due to the same issue (no cursor in full screen) |

If I may be so bold as to suggest - Might it be possible to assign a keystroke (for example, Alt+F1) to show/hide the cursor in fullscreen mode? It seems to me that this solution should satisfy everyone - The cursor can be invoked when needed, and hidden when not, rather than attempting to decide for the user on a per game basis when the cursor should be visible. (If I'm not mistaken, a similar model is in place for cross-hair support in gun based games) |

Fixed. When pressing TAB, a mouse cursor is visible in MAME since version 0.172. |

@MetalGod The missing cursor in the MAME menu was fixed in MAME 0.146u5, but when you use the polepos example you cannot see the mouse in the clickable artwork. Try "mame polepos" with artwork enabled and then try to move the thick gear knob with the mouse. You cannot! The mouse is invisible... |

I don't think something simple like polepos needs the clickable artwork flag. Also IMO this flag belongs in the layout file, not the driver file. For example on Speak & Spell which has nice external clickable artwork. |

@M.A.S.H. You're true. Sorry, I wasn't sure what the clickable artwork meant ;) |

@MetalGod I'd like to make a small suggestion: In the TAB menu -> Video options, add a "Mouse" option right above "Rotate" which would let you display the mouse cursor (fullscreen and windowed) and enables clicking on the artwork. The option would be disabled by default but would be automatically enabled when the corresponding .lay file defines any clickable element (inputtag). What do you think? |

Not a bad idea. Ask the developers ;) |

My bad, I though you were the dev that implemented the first part. Anyway, what would be the best way to get in touch with the UI guys? |
