GNOME Shell extension to hide the cursor on inactivity
For use on Wayland, since unclutter, unclutter-xfixes and xbanish only work on X11
Install from the GNOME Shell Extensions website
(Or download the file [email protected] from a release and run gnome-extension install [email protected])
The latest version (3.0.1) supports GS 49 only. Much thanks to a contributor: this extension has been essentially rewritten. The timeout value is now followed correctly and this value is configurable with a setting.
Settings are translated to Dutch and Russian, thanks to contributors.
Earlier releases have a fixed 5 second timeout but due to simplistic logic the actual timeout varies under this value.
- GS 48: use version 2.0.1
- GS 45–47: version 1.3.0
- Version 0.1.0 is a backport to GNOME Shell 42 provided by a contributor. I have not tested it myself. (Feedback welcome! Does it work with GS 43 or 44?)
