Creating a Cursor

The following example creates two cursor handles: one for the standard hourglass cursor and one for a custom cursor included as a resource in the application's resource-definition file.

Normally, the cursor is an arrow, and the text entry position cursor may be a simple flickering underscore or vertical strip. Installing a new mouse cursor style on Windows is quick, simple, and also provides just the right refresh for your desktop. Here’s a list of the best 35 mouse pointer themes you can consider. Install Cursors. Download your chosen cursor icons (or pack of icons) from your favorite websites. Open the System Cursors folder, which can be found at C Drive Windows Cursors and move across. Cursors are a very small but extremely important element in the design of Windows. The mouse pointer flashes before our eyes quite often and is the main object for navigating the operating system. In order for it to blend harmoniously into the interface, you need to choose a beautiful cursor in accordance with the appearance of your desktop.

You should implement custom cursors as resources. Rather than create the cursors at run time, use the LoadCursor, LoadCursorFromFile, or LoadImage function to avoid device dependence, to simplify localization, and to enable applications to share cursor designs.

The following example uses the CreateCursor function to create a custom cursor at run time. The example is included here to illustrate how the system interprets cursor masks.

To create the cursor, CreateCursor applies the following truth table to the AND and XOR masks.

Before closing, you must use the DestroyCursor function to destroy any cursors you created with CreateCursor. It is not necessary to destroy cursors created by other functions.

Displaying a Cursor

The system automatically displays the class cursor (the cursor associated with the window to which the cursor is pointing). You can assign a class cursor while registering a window class. The following example illustrates this by assigning a cursor handle to the hCursor member of the WNDCLASS structure identified by the wc parameter.

When the window class is registered, the cursor identified by 230 in the application's resource-definition file is the default cursor for all windows based on the class.

Your application can change the design of the cursor by using the SetCursor function and specifying a different cursor handle. However, when the cursor moves, the system redraws the class cursor at the new location. To prevent the class cursor from being redrawn, you must process the WM_SETCURSOR message. Each time the cursor moves and mouse input is not captured, the system sends this message to the window in which the cursor is moving.

You can specify different cursors for different conditions while processing WM_SETCURSOR. For example, the following example shows how to display the cursor whenever the cursor moves over the icon of a minimized application.

When the window is not minimized, the system displays the class cursor.

You can replace a class cursor by using the SetClassLong function. This function changes the default window settings for all windows of a specified class. The following example replaces the existing class cursor with the hCurs2 cursor.

For more information, see Window Classes and Mouse Input.

Confining a Cursor

The following example confines the cursor to the application's window and then restores the cursor to its previous window. The example uses the GetClipCursor function to record the area in which the cursor can move and the ClipCursor function to confine and restore the cursor.

Because there is only one cursor at a time available in the system, an application that confines the cursor must restore the cursor before relinquishing control to another window.

Using Cursor Functions to Create a Mousetrap

The following example uses the SetCursorPos, GetCursorPos, CreateCursor, LoadCursor, and SetCursor functions to create a simple mousetrap. It also uses cursor and timer functions to monitor the cursor's position every 10 seconds. If the cursor position has not changed in the last 10 seconds and the application's main window is minimized, the application changes the cursor and moves it to the mousetrap icon.

An example for a similar mousetrap is included in Icons. It uses the LoadCursor and LoadIcon functions instead of the more device-dependent CreateCursor and CreateIcon functions.

Using the Keyboard to Move the Cursor

Cursors

Because the system does not require a mouse, an application should be able to simulate mouse actions with the keyboard. The following example shows how to achieve this by using the GetCursorPos and SetCursorPos functions and by processing input from the arrow keys.
