Hi everyone,
I've been using Allegro for my rather primitive gui. I heard here
somewhere that you must hide the mouse before drawing on the screen.
When I draw onto a winddow, I first check if the mouse is in the window
and if it is not, then I just draw, and if it is in the window, I erase the
mouse before drawing in the window. That means that sometimes I'll be
drawing on the screen with a visible mouse pointer, but not over the
drawing region. Is this dangerous? I haven't had any problems so far.
Thanks
Doug Eleveld
