custom app cursors

[AdamStrangeParticipant]

Is this possible.

Something like App.SetCursor( path ) ?

or

cursor := loadcursor( path )

app.cursor = cursor

 

??

Hi
again SDL ‘supports’ both pre-coded cursor than user defined one.
MX2 source code has some references – Struct SDL_CURSOR,SDL_SYSTEM_CURSOR, the external function to create on-the-way via UTF8String a cursor – SDL_CreateCursor:SDL_Cursor Ptr(data_:Utf8String,mask_:Utf8String,w_:Int,h_:Int,hot_x_:Int,hot_y_:Int) – and so on.
It will be useful to have the possibility to change the cursor – using the default alternative (ARROW, WAIT, HAND etc…)
I think it’s better Mark decides (or asks) what put/change/add in these core modules.

ps: I suppose Emscripten handles this (and other things like Events) in a different way. Not really clear at the moment…

There is a helper to work with cursors: http://monkeycoder.co.nz/forums/topic/systemcursor-wrapper-class-for-sdl_cursor/
