SetCursor()
Summary
Sets the system pointer cursor style to one of several predefined options.
Syntax
SetCursor(string cursor_type)
| Argument | Contents |
|---|---|
| cursor_type | One of the following: Arrow, Hourglass, Crosshair, Digitizer. |
Notes
The current cursor type is saved when SetCursor() is called and is restored by a call to ResetCursor().
If cursor_type is null, the pointer is set to an arrow cursor.
The SetCursor() and ResetCursor() functions should be called in pairs, since each call to ResetCursor() restores the cursor to its state before the previous SetCursor() call.
Example
SetCursor("Hourglass")
RunMacro("my macro") // Hourglass displays while the macro runs...
