Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

I've been using an Xbox Controller to play 'Animal Crossing: City Folk' for the longest time now, and the lack of a Virtual Cursor is irritating me!
It would be amazing if you could add some kind of Virtual Cursor to Dolphin, since it would improve me and many other's experiences.


What I am currently doing is, holding the left stick down to show the cursor and then dragging the joystick to an item, and that hurts really bad after a while and is very inaccurate and shaky.

The kind of Virtual Cursor I would like to see is, Clicking the left thumbstick once, and then just being able to freely move and it staying there when I let go.
Heres how it would look like:

I hope a Virtual Cursor can be implemented in the future! I would be really thankful!

What you're describing is already possible.

I'm assuming that right now, you have "Hide" mapped to something like !`Left Thumb`? If so, change it to toggle(`Left Thumb`).

Turn on Relative Input.
