the source control and using SetCapture to route all CursorImage

Ooops. Yes SetCapture spoils the fun Smile

For instance, if there was a way to either hook onto CursorImage events or set the default mouse pointer (as far I can tell this currently impossible - Image::Arrow() is specified directly all over the place) it would solve one my problems and I could work around the rest.

Actually, it is possible to hook mouse messages:

static void Ctrl::InstallMouseHook(MouseHook hook);

See CtrlLib/ToolTip.cpp for usage example.

OTOH, I do not think this is a good idea for D&D.

I hope this makes sense. If I have time today I might imlpement an app to illustrate the problem.

Definitely makes sense.
