Hello Filip,
thank you for your response.
I do not see a mouse cursor, maybe because my console is not shown on the
display...
But does eglfs have specific IMX behaviour?
I assume that it's a general question if eglfs draws directly to the
framebuffer
or if it introduces some extra buffers which have to be copied. I wouldn't
expect
that unless setting "layer.enabled" property to 'true' or using
ShaderEffectSource...
Best regards,
Martin
