How to change mouse pointers?

I would like to change the mouse pointer (from arrow to hourglass) while the application is doing a certain task.
How is this done? thanks!

in the frame where you want to do this just write
setCursor(3)  // it is deprecated3 means waitcursor, for more spec. look in
java.awt.Cursorregards

  • How to change mouse pointers programmat​ically

    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,

  • How to change mouse-over label for a mx:CandleStickChart?

    I have an <mx:CandleStickChart .../> graph and want to change the default
    labels on the mouse-over window.  For example by default, the mouse-over window displays:
      line1: some label
      line2: open: #1
      line3: close: #2
      line4: high:  #3
      line5: low: #4
    I want to change the words "open", "close", "high", "low" to something else.  I optionally want to not show  the "close" line.
    Do you have any suggestions on how to do this?  If you do, please provide a short example.
    Thanks for taking the time to help.

    Hi
    First change the name from kPlusIconPNGIconRsrcID to kPlusIconPNGIconIRsrcID
    so "I" will indicate that your icon is inactive
    Create another resource id like:
    #define kPlusIconPNGIconIRsrcID 15
    #define kPlusIconPNGIconARsrcID 15
    Define paths to the icons
    resource PNGA(kPlusIconPNGIconIRsrcID) "../res/icons/PLUS_ICO_23_I.png" // Inactive icon
    resource PNGR(kPlusIconPNGIconARsrcID) "../res/icons/PLUS_ICO_23_A.png" // Active icon

  • 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 mouse & graphics settings on Solaris 10?

    I have Solaris 10 on x86. Before under Solaris 9, I used the "kdmconfig" command to change the mouse and graphics card settings.
    What is the command to do this under Solaris 10, x86? Thanks.

    serendipity1276,
    If you want to use Xorg in a console as root (su -) type /usr/X11/bin/xorgconfig This will walk you thru setting up X, and create a /etc/X11/xorg.conf file. After completing the setup, log out and log back in. Your new settings should take effect. One interesting thing of note concerning mouse setup. If you're using a usb mouse, you should select "auto", otherwise if you select "imps2" for example, you're X server will not start.
    hope that helps,

  • 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.....

    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 Change Mouse Cursor Icon To Hand And Click Middle Of Player To Pause In Strobe Media Playback

    Hello,
    Thank you for providing a platform where uses can pose questions to Adobe employees. This certainly helps us all cut right through it.
    Similar to YouTube's player (as well as many others), I was wondering if it is currently possible for users to enable functionality on Strobe Media Playback to change the mouse cursor to a hand/point cursor upon hovering over Strobe Media Playback's buttons (such as pause, the volume controls and that initial large centered middle play button),
    And, whether or not it is currently possible to enable functionality to pause/play videos merely by clicking the middle of the video screen (within the normal view mode as well as the full screen mode). Again, with YouTube, Vimeo, JW Player, and many others, such functionality is currently built-in by default.
    I look forward to any advice you are able to provide. Thanks again for providing this discussion platform for users.
    - C.R.

    Hi, thank you for your suggestions and for the interest in our player.
    The full area click issue is an older one, tracked at http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/ST-156 . Unfortunately, it will not be fixed in this release.
    The hand cursor issue is now tracked at http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/ST-331 - thanks for suggesting it!

  • How to change the default IDOC basic type from CREMAS05 to CREMAS04.

    Hi All,
    How to change the default IDOC basic type from CREMAS05 to CREMAS04 when sending Vendor Master Data.
    When I generate partner profile, the system will add the latest version of IDOC type which is CREMAS05 to the Outbound message. In my project, I'm asked to use CREMAS04.
    I want to use BD14 to send master data directly, but the program will generate IDOC using CREMAS05. Is there a way that I can change it to CREMAS04? And also for using Change Pointers, I want to use the report RBDMIDOC, but i have the same problem.
    Thanks

  • How to change default vertical page co-ordinates from center, to top?

    Hi There,
    We're having trouble understanding why InDesign centers the page instead of aligning the view to the top when switching pages (and copying and pasting) - and how to change this behavior.
    To understand what I'm talking about, do the following:
    Create a new document (any size)
    Use the page tool to to change the height
    Create a new page and use the page tool to make the height a lot taller
    Now switch between the pages
    Notice how InDesign always shows you the center of the page?
    This is frustrating in many situations like copying and pasting - try the following:
    Create a box on the first page and align it to 20mm from the top and 20mm from the left
    Copy the box
    Switch to the second page
    Paste using CMD + OPT + SHFT + P
    The object should be pasted in the same spot (20mm from the top and 20mm from the left) but it isn't - on the vertical, it's pasted relative to the center of the page for some reason.
    It surprising how annoying this becomes when you're constantly re-positioning pasted items or when switching between web layouts of different heights - it becomes a two step process instead of one.
    Does anyone know how to change this behavior?
    Any pointers in the right direction would be much appreciated - we're using CS5.5
    Cheers
    Ben

    Thanks for the replies - sorry I didn't reply earlier but they went to junk.
    Why in the same spot if pages have different size?
    In general, sure - but what about letting the user define a point of reference? For me, it's always the top left corner like the rulers - I completely understand if that doesn't work for others but it would save me so much wasted time constantly repositioning objects.
    Also, in a lot of documents with different page-sizes, setting the reference to top left (or whatever you set your rulers to) actually works a lot of the time - granted, probably only for those that use the numbers to position objects.
    Anyway, what I'd like to do is find out how to set a document-wide reference point for co-ordinates - obviously you can't do this right?
    Another thing that wastes time (in a similar vein) is the ability to set defaults for translation, rotation and flipping etc.
    Almost without fail, I find I want top left when moving (because I set rulers to top left) but center for rotation and flipping. Being able to set a default per translation type would save a lot of pointing and clicking.
    Is this possible?
