Does Application.UseWaitCursor Property actually apply to all threads in the application?

Application.UseWaitCursor Property

When this property is set to true, the UseWaitCursor property of all open
forms in the application will be set to true.
From what I see it actually applies only to the main thread where I have the
Application.UseWaitCursor=True and not to other threads in the application.
Is that what you'd expect?

This is what I see, except for one routine in which the wait cursor appears
in a thread the main thread started - rather than in the main thread where
Application.UseWaitCursor=True is executed.

Any ideas how that can happen?

Thanks

can you clarify your question? Are you creating forms on different threads or
are all forms created on the same thread? Can you post a short but complete
example? Thanks
