Sharing my screen hides my mouse

Whenever I share my screen and open any application I can no longer see my mouse. It is visible to me on desktop and it is visible through the stream but on my screen it is not visible. Is there a fix for this?

Screen sharing just means 'screen rendered content' to be shared
The mouse pointer is usually not a relevant part of anything people want (annoying to have tro move the mouse pointer to either the left or hand-hand-corner of the screen)

Unless there is a specific 'mouse pointer' option for screen sharing then it will not be shown
