Example Use case

It is used to toggle cursor visibility in third-person or first-person games. For instance, in a third-person game, you can set the Cursor Lock and Unlock Toggle Action input to your inventory or menu toggle key. When this key is pressed, the game will automatically toggle the cursor’s visibility, enabling or disabling the third-person pointer. Once the menu is closed, the game will return to the third-person pointer cursor.
