Hello xawery,

You can override your cursor image readily. Here is sample code:

Image MyCoolCtrl::CursorImage(Point p, dword keyflags)
{
    return Image::Hand(); // <- Hand cursor image depending on operating system theme.
}

In your header file you will need also to override "CursorImage" virtual method:

class MyCoolCtrl : public Ctrl {
public:
    virtual Image CursorImage(Point p, dword keyflags);
};

Moreover, I enclosed stock cursor list that you can use in your applications (Based on CtrlCore/ImageX11.cpp source file):

Image Image::Arrow()
Image Image::Wait()
Image Image::IBeam()
Image Image::No()
Image Image::SizeAll()
Image Image::SizeHorz() 
Image Image::SizeVert()
Image Image::SizeTopLeft()
Image Image::SizeTop()
Image Image::SizeTopRight()
Image Image::SizeLeft() 
Image Image::SizeRight() 
Image Image::SizeBottomLeft() 
Image Image::SizeBottom() 
Image Image::SizeBottomRight()
Image Image::Cross()
Image Image::Hand()

BTW, I think that this list should be included in U++ documentation. It will help a lot.

Sincerely,
Klugier

U++ - one framework to rule them all.
