  When i use the text_input_form performance is very slow. Or i am typing too fast
  Not all the letters appear in the text.
  So i thought to try another way.

  This is a known issue with the xpyriment and psycho backends. If you switch to legacy, you'll find that it works smoothly. But that's not always ideal either, of course. So more tips are on this page:

  How do i make the mouse disappear after the text_input ?

  from libopensesame import widgets
  my_form = widgets.form(exp, cols=1, rows=3)
  
  # add instruction
  label = widgets.label(my_form, text='Ist Ihnen während den 12 Blöcken etwas aufgefallen?')
  label2 = widgets.label(my_form, text='Bitte langsam schreiben. Mit Enter beenden.')
  
  # add text input box
  text_input = widgets.text_input(my_form, var='response', return_accepts=True)
  text_input.__init__(my_form, stub='Mir ist aufgefallen, dass ...' , return_accepts=True, var='response')
  
  rect= (0,0,0,0)
  text_input.set_rect(rect)
  
  my_form.set_widget(label, (0,0))
  my_form.set_widget(label2, (0,1))
  my_form.set_widget(text_input, (0,2))
  my_form._exec()
  
  #mouse.show_cursor(show=False) 
  ### ERROR ###  'function' object has no attribute 'show_cursor'
  
  #present any other object without having a mouse on the screen
  my_canvas = canvas()
  my_canvas.fixdot()
  my_canvas.show()
  leer=keyboard(keylist=['SPACE'])
  leer.get_key()

  The thing to know is that mouse() is not itself a mouse object, but a function that returns a mouse object when you call it. So if you want to change the visibility of the cursor immediately, you should first create a mouse object and then call show_cursor() on it. Like so:

  my_mouse = mouse() # Create a new mouse object
  my_mouse.show_cursor(False) # And hide the cursor!
  

  (In other words, it works just like with a canvas object.)

  You can combine this into a single line, like so:

  mouse().show_cursor(False)
  

  Cheers!
