NAME

cursoff - turn the cursor off

SYNOPSIS

C
cursoff()

FORTRAN
subroutine cursof

Pascal
procedure cursoff;

DESCRIPTION

Cursoff prevents the cursor from being displayed.   This command should precede any drawing commands that write into the currently displayed cursor planes. 

The cursor, by default, is always displayed.  As it is drawn on the screen, the image that it covers is saved away.  When the cursor moves, the saved image is restored.  If the image changes while the cursor is displayed, the saved image may no longer be valid.  This is a concern in single buffer and RGB modes and in double buffer mode when the front buffer is enabled. 

SEE ALSO

curson, getcursor, setcursor

NOTE

This command can only be used in immediate mode.
