Implement preview mode for single display and toggling with keyboard shortcut

If the 2nd render is full screen, it would be nice if the mouse cursor would vanish after a few seconds of inactivity.

Can you describe in more detail what you're trying to accomplish? What is your window layout? Do you have multiple displays connected? Why not just move the pointed into a corner?

Messing with the point is always a bit tricky with ImGui (because it's rendered natively by Windows. So we should consider this carefully.

I just have the laptop screen. My workflow is

1. run Tooll in full screen
2. open the 2nd render window
3. switch to the main window (alt+tab)
4. change something in graph window
5. switch to the 2nd render window and watch the result repeat 3...

I guess this is another issue specific for laptops ... the output window is just too small to get a impression, so I prefer the 2nd render window. But there is always the mouse pointer disturbing a bit. Sure I can train myself to push it away and back again in the graph window. It is just a little anoyance because it happens so frequently

Ah I see! I think that's a very creative work around to an important use-case that should better solved. A current work around might be to create a layout (in current version this will be Default F10) with only a single output-window and hide UI (with Shift Esc). Sadly this will not remove the mouse pointer or the Output window tools.

We should add a preview mode that can easily be toggled with a hotkey (e.g. CTRL+Space). I renamed this issue accordingly.

Good idea, but I insist on being annoyed by some ugly white pixels disturbing my creations (aka mouse pointer)
