[Feature] Hide Mouse while typing #6207

Description:
It would be a great enhancement to Typora if there were an option in the settings to automatically hide the mouse cursor while typing. This feature would improve focus by ensuring the mouse cursor does not interfere with the text being edited or displayed. It would create a cleaner and more immersive writing experience, especially for users who want to concentrate solely on the content without visual distractions.

Proposed Solution:

  • Add a toggleable option in the settings menu (e.g., under "Preferences" > "Appearance" or "Editing") labeled something like "Hide mouse cursor while typing."
  • When this option is enabled, the mouse cursor should automatically disappear once the user begins typing and reappear when the user moves the mouse again.
  • Optionally, include a small delay before the cursor hides to avoid accidental hiding when the user stops typing momentarily.

Benefits:

  • Enhances focus and reduces distractions for users while writing.
  • Prevents the cursor from obscuring text, particularly in dense or small text areas.
  • Aligns with user expectations from other productivity tools and writing environments where similar features are present.

Additional Notes:
This feature could be particularly useful for writers, developers, and anyone who spends extended periods working in Typora, as it fosters a minimalist and distraction-free workspace.

Thank you for considering this feature request! It aligns well with Typora's ethos of providing a seamless and focused writing experience.
