Question / Help Wrong Mouse Cursor in Game Capture

Hello,

I have a problem with the windows mouse cursor appearing ingame in the game capture, when I am alt-tabbed to something else while having a game capture scene active.
In the old OBS, Game capture only shows the cursor when a game has focus and then shows the ingame cursor.
OBS Multiplatform seems to always show the mouse cursor globally. Even when my game is in the background, the mouse cursor is always visible in the location my mouse is, with the current mouse icon (i.e. windows mouse in explorer etc.). This makes alt-tabbing while streaming impossible, as the windows mouse icon is always in the capture, doing nonsense things for the viewers.

Is this intended? I guess not, as it wasn't the case in the "old" OBS.
A suggested fix would be to check if the mouse cursor is over a captured area (or if the game capture window is in focus, which is the behaviour of old OBS) to decide whether to draw the mouse or not.

edit: logfile, although not necessary, I think.

Same here. I play in borderless window. It would be great if mouse cursor was hiding when the game (window) lose focus.
