Cursor.Hide() in Console App

Sup

Is it possible to hide mouse cursor in .Net Framework C# Console Application? Visual Studio Community 2019 .Net Framework 4.8

I've added a link to System.Windows.Forms

I'm making a console game and I'm using Cursor.Position.X and Cursor.Position.Y to move a camera But i don't need this damn cursor on my screen

Edit:

My question is still open.. Any "Cursor.Current = Cursors.None" or "Custom" (or "Wait" or something else.. does not matter) is not working. Could anyone help me? Better be if you place a piece of code that already tested in Console Application (Not a Win Forms App)

And BTW I can't "trap" the cursor somewhere because I use it movements to move the camera

Have you tried `Cursor = Cursors.None`? – Yosef Bernal Aug 14 '20 at 10:09

First, set cursor to "Custom" and choose an empty ".cur" file. Then use "ClipCursor" API method and trap the cursor to (0,0,0,0). https://pinvoke.net/default.aspx/user32/ClipCursor.html – Cihan Yakar Aug 14 '20 at 10:55
@yosef-bernal I have not "None" in "Cursors" and thing like "Cursor.Current = Cursors.WaitCursor"does not work at my console app actually and I don't know why – Nate Zephyr Aug 14 '20 at 13:17
