Question about setMouseCursor

[cCj]

Oh ok, thx Kulik. But why arent the stuff in 0.7.5? and can you expect these fixes to be in some 0.7.x release? Sorry i just dont know what your plans are for this

[Kulik]

Probably because it wasn't there when 0.7.5 was released 0.7.6 release would be nice but I am unsure whether that will happen. Releasing is a lot of pain and the focus is on 0.8

So I assume its going to be in 0.8.

thx

Hello,

I know the topic is quite old but I stumbled across the same problem and found a fix. In my code I also change the global mouse cursor when the user clicks on a certain button but as long as the mouse is still on that button the user won't see the changes. Here is what I had to add:

Code: Select all

bool Button::onClick(const CEGUI::EventArgs& args)
{
   CEGUI::System::getSingleton().setDefaultMouseCursor("CustomImageset", "NewMouseIcon");

   // THE FIX: these two lines will force the button to draw the new mouse cursor immediately
   CEGUI::Window* win = CEGUI::System::getSingleton().getWindowContainingMouse();
   win->setMouseCursor(CEGUI::System::getSingleton().getDefaultMouseCursor());
}


Now the new cursor will be drawn immediately.
