S7+ Keyboard case and finger cursor woes...

Is there any way to keep the...what's the word, finger cursor? The little blinking line that tells you where the letters you're typing will appear? No idea what to call it, so I'll just go with "finger cursor" and hopefully that gets the idea across.

Anyway, when I attach the keyboard case to the S7+ that function dissapears, which is extremely inconvenient since I love the keyboard case for writing but I find the touchpad useless. It lags, doesn't allow highliting, is easy to touch accidentally, etc, and so I keep it shut off, just reaching up and using my finger to move around the text instead. However, the blinking line that is oh so helpfully there with the onscreen keyboard disappears as soon as I connect the case, and try as I might I can't find a setting to turn it back on without turning the onscreen keyboard back on. It creates this rediculous problem of having to pop the onscreen keyboard up to see the cusor, which causes some apps to reorient their perspectives and other to not and messes up split screen configurations, then typing on the physical keyboard which causes the onscreen keyboard to dissapear but leaves the split screen apps misorienting. Yes, its as annoying as it sounds... So, is there any way to keep the "finger cursor" turned on while the keyboard case is connected? I'm assuming there isn't, pessimistically, but I figured I'd holler just in case.

Hope that all makes sense, and thanks much to anyone reading...
