Mouse cursor flickers when taking screenshots on Windows

[Stefan Reich]

Hi,

I am developing an application for screen automation in Java. It
necessarily has to grab screenshots regularly (up to 20 FPS) using
java.awt.Robot. On Windows, this causes the mouse cursor to flicker
constantly
<https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25705814/java-cursor-flickering-when-i-take-many-screenshot>
which is very annoying.

Is there any way around this?

I'd be completely fine with having a screenshot that includes the mouse
cursor. (I assume hiding the mouse cursor in the screenshot is the reason
the flickering occurs.)

Greetings,
Stefan
