Even when Robert must ask it my preliminary answer is:
No, it could be implemented but is a mess. First: RHIDE must detect when
Winblows enclose the IDE in a Window, for that you must put a hook in the
Multiplex interrupt, but in real mode (a mess). Second: The effect that you
describe is because RHIDE emulates the mouse in the extended modes because most
of the mouse drivers fails under such a situations.
But there are a possible middle point: Perhaps Robert can add a MANUAL switch
to say: "Do not emulate the mouse in the extended modes". I don't know if that
could be really usefull (the cursor will disappear when the IDE goes to full
screen).
