If you want to change the cursor of a control, set its 'Cursor' property
to 'Cursors.*', if you want to change the cursor in general, set
'Cursor.Current ' to a cursor.

I'm trying to dynamically change the cursor of a couple of maps over an image. Basically the image is in an online photo system where there is a rotate mode. In this mode clicking on the left or right half of the image rotates it 90 degrees to the left or right. I want to change the cursor to indicate this but only while in the rotate mode. After looking at it in the Mozilla DOM inspector it seems as if the style is changing but neither...

How can I customize DataGrid so that when the mouse hovers over certain columns the cursor changes to the Cursors.Hand cusror? I was unable to use the MouseEnter/MouseLeave events on DataGrid itself because those events do not use the MouseEventArgs, so I can't get the X Y position to determine if the cursor should change for that column

Hi, I'm working on an application in C# that will allow the user to create simple CAD drawings on a CEPC system. I would like to be able to change the cursor shape depending on the drawing mode selected by the user. I started out by setting up P/Invokes for LoadCursor and SetCursor. Calling LoadCursor followed by SetCursor does allow me to change to a different cursor, such as the cross cursor, but as soon as the application leaves...

I was trying to design a widget that I could drag and drop anywhere in a frame and then resize by pulling at the edges with the mouse. I have fiddled with several different approaches and came across this behavior when using the combination of place() and configure(cursor = ...) This problem doesn't occur if you remove either one of these elements. It's a very basic design of a button wrapped in a sizer frame and is supposed to work like...

I have the opportunity to rescue a project that uses a mouse to sense the relative position of a machine. The hardware is built...just needs to be programmed. Stop snickering!!! I didn't do it...I just gotta fix it. I need to make some calculations on the measurements and VB6 is my language. Yes, the system mouse will corrupt the measurement, but it's an auditing function and that's acceptable.

I'm trying to change the cursor that appears on a standard ListView when the cursor appears over an item. However I am getting a flickering effect as the mouse is changed to a finger cursor, and then back to what I asked it to be. I'm trying to isolate this flicker/changing to the hand cursor but can't figure out where it's occuring or how to stop it. To replicate this... 1) Create a form with a ListView on it. 2) Add an image list and...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
