Description

Game Name?

N/A

Game ID? (right click the game in the game list, Properties, Info tab)

N/A

MD5 Hash? (right click the game in the game list, Properties, Verify tab, Verify Integrity button)

N/A

What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.

If you background input set to off, have "Hide" in the wiimote pointer controller configuration set to "when a button is not pressed", and you remove the focus from the gameplay window, the wiimote pointer will appear on screen (sometimes lingering, sometimes disappearing quickly).

What steps will reproduce the problem?

See above

Is the issue present in the latest development version? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest development version.

5.0-13965

Is the issue present in the latest stable version?

Don't know.

If the issue isn't present in the latest stable version, which is the first broken version? (You can find the first broken version by bisecting. Windows users can use the tool https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-green-notice-development-thread-unofficial-dolphin-bisection-tool-for-finding-broken-builds and anyone who is building Dolphin on their own can use git bisect.)

Don't know.

If your issue is a graphical issue, please attach screenshots and record a three frame fifolog of the issue if possible. Screenshots showing what it is supposed to look like from either console or older builds of Dolphin will help too. For more information on how to use the fifoplayer, please check here: https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=FifoPlayer

What are your PC specifications? (CPU, GPU, Operating System, more)

Is there anything else that can help developers narrow down the issue? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files, savefiles, savestates)

Yeah

Not really a bug, that's just how it works when you have background input off.

Actions #3

Updated by Hiccup about 3 years ago

Well I think its undesirable behavior (isn't it?). But if its not a bug, then I guess its a feature request.

  • Status changed from New to Working as intended

Turn on background input if you want the Wii Remote Cursor to not show up when you lose focus. You could also do shenanigans with Dolphin's advanced input configuration + hotkeys to hide the Wii Remote cursor if you don't want background input.

This can be fixed with my input rework, as input values can be "frozen" instead of "defaulted/zeroed" when window focus is lost.
In any case, not a bug, it's not amazing but it's by design.

Then it's working as intended for now, but can be fixed with your rework if you want.
