How to change mouse pointer to Arrow?

When we move the mouse over any component in preview (or in SWF file), mouse pointer changes to u201Chandu201D. Is it possible to keep the mouse pointer to Arrow or any other custom mouse pointer in Xcelsius 2008 SP 4?
Thanks

Mouse over cursor is set to ARROW if the component is not selectable
Eg:pie chard which has no drill down or no furthur selection is enabled then the mouse over by default is ARROW.
If you have enabled any furthur selection for that component the by default mouseover is HAND .
This holds good for all the components in Xcelsius (even in sp4) Except for tab set container component where the selection of tabs is displayed with Arrow symbol.
New features that sp4 provides is 1)Waterfall chart 2)Alerts are supported for spreadsheet tables, and for
combination charts.

How to change access point name

Need to know how to change access point name for straight talk on iPhone 4

There are several other threads here about doing this, or you can look up the "sim swap" method, documented here: http://www.jgmedia.biz/how-to-get-data-and-mms-working-on-straight-talk-iphone-4 -and-iphone-4s-on-ios-6-updated-sim-swap-method/. This does require temporary access to a T-Mobile or Simple Mobile SIM/Micro-SIM card.

How to hidden mouse pointer?

When mouse moves inside Frame, how to hidden mouse pointer?
Thanks,
Quinten

It depends on what you mean. If you want to make the cursor invisible, here is one way of doing it:
            ImageIcon emptyIcon = new ImageIcon(new byte[0]);
            Cursor invisibleCursor = getToolkit().createCustomCursor(
                emptyIcon.getImage(), new Point(0,0), "Invisible");
            frame.getContentPane().setCursor(invisibleCursor);Note that even though the cursor is invisible it will still be a cursor, i.e. you can click on buttons etc.
Or do you want to disable the cursor completely?

Change mouse pointer over selected text

I have a JTextArea and i want to change the default mouse pointer to the arrow pointer when the user points to a selected text. Just like the way JCreator works.!
Thanx

Try this :
Cursor textCursor = new Cursor(Cursor.TEXT_CURSOR);
Cursor arrowCursor = new Cursor(Cursor.DEFAULT_CURSOR );
textArea.setCursor(textCursor);
textArea.addMouseMotionListener(new MouseMotionAdapter() {
     public void mouseMoved(MouseEvent e) {
          int location = textArea.viewToModel(e.getPoint());
          if (textArea.getSelectionStart()<=location && location<textArea.getSelectionEnd()) {
               if (textArea.getCursor() != arrowCursor) {
                    textArea.setCursor(arrowCursor);
          else {
               if (textArea.getCursor()==arrowCursor) {
                    textArea.setCursor(textCursor);
});I hope this helps,

How to change mouse pointers programmatically

Normally when a VI is run, mouse pointer changes to 'Hand Pointer'.Is it possible to make it 'Arrow pointer' wherever no buttons are there and if buttons are there change mouse to 'Hand Pointer'.
Thanks

Hi,
if you use LV 7 have a look at the cursors palette under application control (I don't know the exact English names because I'm using the German version; it may be an advanced feature which is not available in all LV versions).
Together with a dynamic event you could implement your desired behaviour maybe (it's a good idea though; the hand pointer is pretty ugly as standard mouse pointer if there's no interactive element).
Cheers,
Carsten

Changing mouse pointer using setCursor()

Hi- I've got a single threaded JFrame-based application in which I want to change the mouse pointer to indicate 'busy' when it's doing stuff eg. loading a file. So within my extended JFrame method for handling menu selections I've got:
public class Layout extends JFrame
    // For items in the main menu
    // (the sub-class contains either a JMenuItem or JCheckBoxMenuItem).
    abstract class MenuItem implements ActionListener
        abstract JMenuItem menuItemAbs(); // get the menu item component
        abstract void handlerAbs(); // perform the menu's action
        // Menu item has been selected.
        public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
            Cursor cursor = Layout.this.getCursor();
            Layout.this.setCursor(Cursor.getPredefinedCursor(Cursor.WAIT_CURSOR));
            handlerAbs();
            Layout.this.setCursor(cursor);
        }But the mouse pointer doesn't always change. If handler() just does some processing without user interaction, the pointer does change. But in the case of loading a file, where first the user selects the file using a JFileChooser, it doesn't.
Is this because JFileChooser does its own setCursor()? But even if it does, presumably it does another setCursor() to restore my WAIT_CURSOR before it returns, so why don't I see the WAIT_CURSOR while the file is loading (which takes seconds)?
Cheers

Ok, thanks - full demo program below.
When you hit the ok button (just 5 second sleep), the mouse pointer changes to 'busy'. It reverts to normal if you move the pointer off the frame, but goes back to 'busy' if you move it back onto the frame.
When you hit the bad button (brings up file chooser, then does 5 second sleep), the pointer changes to 'busy' while the pointer is over the frame, and reverts to normal when the pointer is moved off the frame. But if you select a file or cancel the file chooser and move the pointer back into the main frame before the 5 seconds is up, the pointer doesn't go back to 'busy' again. I would expect it to show 'busy' while over the frame until the 5 seconds is up.
Any ideas?

Changing mouse pointer

I would like to be able to change my mouse pointer to something
other that what set_application_property cursor_style can do for
me. I would like to be able to call a mouse pointer from the
file system and replace the the pointer in my forms app.
Thanks in advance for any direction that can be given.
Roland

If your Mouse cursor is in a DLL you can do:
Set_Application_Property(CURSOR_STYLE,'<DLLNAME>cursorname');
For this to work you have to load the above DLL first using
ORA_FFI.LOAD_LIBRARY().

How to change mouse cursor during drag and drop

Hi Guys,
Iam performing a Drag and drop from Table1(on top of the figure) to Table2(down in the figure).
see attached figure
http://www.upload-images.net/imagen/e80060d9d3.jpg
Have implemented the Drag and drop functionality using "Transferable" and "TransferHandler"using the java tutorial
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/examples/dnd/index.html#ExtendedDndDemo
Now My problem is that ,I want to make the 1st column in Table2(ie: Column2-0) not to accept any drops so that the cursor appears like a "No-Drop" cursor but with selection on the column cell during a drop action.
Also when I move my cursor between "column2-0" and "column2-1",want to to have the "No-Drop" and "Drop" cursor to appear depending on the column.
How can I achieve it using the TransferHandle class.Dont want to go the AWT way of implementing all the source and target listeners on my own.
Have overridded the "CanImort" as follows:
public boolean canImport(JComponent c, DataFlavor[] flavors) {
     JTable table = (JTable)c;
Point p = table.getMousePosition();
/* if(p==null)
     return false;
int selColIndex = table.columnAtPoint(p);
if(selColIndex==0)
     return false;*/
If I execute the above commented code,The "No-Drop" Icon appears in "column2-0",but no cell selection.Also If I move to "column2-1",which is the 1st column,Still get the "No-Drop" Icon there,also with no cell selection.
for (int i = 0; i < flavors.length; i++) {
if ((DataFlavor.stringFlavor.equals(flavors))) {
return true;
return false;
Thanks in advance.....
Edited by: Kohinoor on Jan 18, 2008 3:47 PM

If you found the selection column based on the mouse pointer, then based on the column, you can set the cursor pointer as any one as below :
setCursor(new Cursor(Cursor.DEFAULT_CURSOR));
setCursor(new Cursor(Cursor.HAND_CURSOR));

How to stop mouse pointer from being included on screenshots

Hey guys I was hoping someone could help me with this problem.
I am creating a software simulation and have decided to use Captivate 6. When capturing the appropriate screenshots i have noticed that the mouse pointer is being included with these. I DO NOT want the mouse pointer to be included within the screenshot.
I know how to disable the mouse pointer when setting my preferences before creaing the simulation, however, the mouse pointer is still being included in the screenshots. Here is an example below.. Can anyone help me?
Thanks,
Garrett
Example: I orginally wanted to show the user's log in menu, but once I clicked "Login" the mouse pointer stuck to the screenshot. I don't want this mouse pointer to be there

I actually chose Demo and assessment. The mouse is not what I want to see in the slides. The timeline does not show a mouse at all because I have that functionality disabled. What I really want is to essentially replicate an application. I want the user to be able to start this captivate project from a flash drive and actually have the applications GUI with limited functionality (for training purposes). I am starting to think there is a problem with the application I am trying to replicate. I have a software product that I must start on a virtual machine. Once the virtual machine is up and running then can I actually start the application. I have already done two of these with different applications and had no problem at all with the mouse pointer disappearing. This one, however, is being very difficult. Maybe its because im using QNX?

Change mouse pointer for Assessment Simulation

Hi there-
I have an assessment simulation - and I need the users mouse
pointer to change to a crosshair (I think that's what it's called)
when the mouse is over a certain area on the screen. Is there
anyway to do this? I know it can be done in a demonstration for the
pointer in the demo.
Lynn

Authorware allows access to the system's mouse 'library', but
it also
allows full Windows File System access too...which could have
security
issues. So it's certainly possible...but, agreed, who knows
whether such
functionality would be integrated into CP.

Change Mouse Pointer Look

Hi,
I have a show/hide layers behavior setup on an image - when
the image is clicked. It works just fine. However, when you hover
the mouse over the image, the mouse pointer doesn't change to the
hand, like it would with a link. Is there any way to get the mouse
pointer to change to the hand when it is hovering over the image?
Thanks,
Lynn

Open the page in DW. Select the image and look at the
behaviors panel.
Change the Event from onClick to <A> onClick, using the
drop-down list of
events in the behaviors panel.

How to change reference point to center?

Hi all,
I have page item and angle through which i want to move. I want a page item to be moved from center.
So how do change it from topLeft to center?
Thanks In advance,
Pooja

Hi,
two choices (or more ;-) )
1. app.activeWindow.transformReferencePoint = AnchorPoint.CENTER_ANCHOR//which is a genereal setting ...
2. //use transform:
var currGraphic = app.selection[0];
var theRotateMatrix = app.transformationMatrices.add({counterclockwiseRotationAngle:-90});
currGraphic.transform(CoordinateSpaces.INNER_COORDINATES, AnchorPoint.centerAnchor, theRotateMatrix);
