This module hides the mouse cursor over the Orbiter window after two seconds of no movement, so you don't need to have a cursor floating around in space with you.  The cursor is shown again as soon as the mouse is moved.

Original question was asked at http://www.orbiter-forum.com/showthread.php?t=15686.

Unzip to the main Orbiter directory while keeping the folder structure intact.  Source code is included.

Hmm, just posted a thank you but it didn't take.

But thank you again hielor! I've d-load it & will throw it in right now. I didn't realize how much it was bugging me until I realized how happy this little fix made me. Nice one.

Cheers

Hello. Thanks for the nice little utility. I wanted to let you know that when distributing source code it is only necessary to include the source files, headers, and the .vcproj file. The intellisense database doesn't take that long to rebuild (couple seconds at most), and the other files contain largely computer specific information. So it reduces the size of the package significantly, only including the aforementioned files. Deleting the other files reduces the file size of the archive to 12 KB from over 2 MB.

Nice catch, thanks. I had originally uploaded it without those files, but then made an update in the project (which caused the files to be re-generated) and re-made the zip without remembering to delete the extras.

I've updated the zip to not include the unneccesary files.
 
I know that this add-on (and its accompanying thread) is quite old, but I just wanted to say that this add-on is great! I cannot live without it. I would certainly recommend this to anyone. Thanks for this nice little utility, as said by computerex!
