The next feature is called CursorHide, which automatically hides the cursor while you type on the keyboard or when the mouse hasn’t been used in a while (or both!). The cursor will reappear as soon as you move the mouse.
More Command Palette Features
The command palette also receives several improvements. A new quick access panel lets you set favorite commands and launch them using the Alt 1 to Alt 9 keyboard shortcuts.
You can also search settings, use multiple clocks with different time zones, and control the command palette using the Copilot key on supported keyboards.
Meanwhile, the Keyboard Manager tool has gained more options for customizing key features. For example, you can assign an alternate function to a key when it is pressed alone while maintaining its normal function in key combinations.
Other new features include the ability to combine screenshots with locally transcribed voice memos, as well as support for controlling more PowerToys functions via the command line.
Additionally, Color Picker and Text Extractor have been updated to WinUI 3, while FancyZones now supports switching between window layouts using the mouse wheel.
