Something in the simulator supports a mouse, so I wonder if it's down in the code somewhere, just not enabled.

macOS passes mouse events to the simulator app, which translates them into touch events. Unless you’re talking about something else?

That is what i'm talking about, but I didn't know if it was macos doing it or what.

I've seen videos where there is a faint circle representing where the cursor is and then it 'touches' the screen.

shrug I just wasn't sure if that was part of the ipad itself (like maybe accessibility) or all from the simulator.

That's coming from the simulator, IIRC. Hold down the alt key and it will show up.
