When I run my application on XBOX using Visual Studio I'm getting a cursor by default which I wanted to remove and use the GamePad buttons to move the focus around the app.

I've tried giving this method as well as mentioned in MDN.

this.RequiresPointerMode = Windows.UI.Xaml.ApplicationRequiresPointerMode.WhenRequested;

<Grid>
        <WebView 
            Source="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/53377615/uwp-app-use-xbox-controller-instead-of-mouse">
        </WebView>
    </Grid>

Any inputs are appreciated to fix this issue so that focus can be managed using GamePad instead of cursor pointer. Thank you.
