This is Windows screenshot feature so mouse cursor cannot be seen. At least cursor reshaping works like a charm so far.

## Note

It can be expanded or shrinked only right or bottom direction.

Technically I can make that happen top or left direction as well but it makes window jitter.

I will figure it out how to solve that.
