How to replace mouse cursor.

How would you replace the mouse cursor in ActionScript 3?  I mean with like a movie clip or a graphic within Flash.  Thanks.  Code prefered.

You would need to use a movieclip so that you can assign an instance name to it... here I use cursorMC as the instance name:
Mouse.hide();
function followMouse(evt:MouseEvent): void{
     cursorMC.x = mouseX;
     cursorMC.y = mouseY;
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, followMouse);

  • How to move mouse cursor

    Hello
    does anybody know how to move the mosecursor with lab view code. If anybody
    have some vi's that take care of this I would be most grateful
    Regards
    Stian Langeland

    For the Win32 case, there's an example available that does this very thing:
    http://digital.ni.com/explprog.nsf/websearch/c33e65e20b23f3e4862565ec004d67ec
    I searched the National Instruments Example Programs Database
    (http://www.ni.com/support/epd/) for "mouse" in order to turn this up.

  • How to hide mouse cursor ?

    How can I hide the mouse cursor, when I am over a component ?

    I don't know if there is a better way but ...
    create a gif (using PaintShop Pro or something) which has nothing in it or if that can't be done as few pixels as possible. I created mine in c:\tmp\blank.gif for the program below
    import java.awt.*;
    import javax.swing.*;
    import java.net.*;
    public class ViewCursor
    extends JFrame
    public ViewCursor()
    throws Exception
    Cursor myCursor = null;
    try
    ImageIcon ii = new ImageIcon(new URL("file:C:/tmp/blank.gif"));
    Image im = ii.getImage();
    Toolkit tk = getToolkit();
    myCursor = tk.createCustomCursor(im, new Point(0,0), "MyCursor");
    catch (Exception e)
    System.out.println("myCursor creation failed " + e);
    getContentPane().setLayout(new FlowLayout());
    JPanel p1 = new JPanel();
    JPanel p2 = new JPanel();
    JButton b1 = new JButton("one");
    JButton b2 = new JButton("two");
    p1.add(b1);
    p2.add(b2);
    p1.setCursor(myCursor); // set panel 1 to have the customised cursor
    getContentPane().add(p1);
    getContentPane().add(p2);
    public static void main(String[] args)
    throws Exception
    ViewCursor v = new ViewCursor();
    v.setSize(200, 200);
    v.setVisible(true);
    when you run this, the cursor disappears when its over p1 / b1

  • How to identify mouse cursor image?

    I am doing some testing in java- everything else so far is working, but I can't find out how to.. find which image the mouse pointer is. I need to be able to tell when a mouse cursor goes over a link and displays the right cursor. It switches between the default arrow, the little hand for links, and a custom cursor, but I don't know how to retrieve that information.
    Any ideas?
    At first I was going to just use screenshots- but cannot capture mouse cursor/icon that way, and this way would work better.
    Thanks!

    That would make sense, but I haven't found any functions on "get the cursor for the component", or of anything related to getting the cursor.
    I was going to use the robot to move to two specified points on the screen, but then I still have the issue of somehow retrieving any information about the cursor(aside from position/clicks). Would you know offhand which package/function(method) would have it? That one only showed stuff related to movement/events, no cursor information besides position/clicks.
    Thanks!

  • 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!

    Dear partha,
    1) You can be able to trace out the location of the button
    2) You can be able to move the cursor to that location
    3) You can be able to automatically generate a click on that button
    Use user32.dll to achieve all this. when u use it in CLN(Call Library Node), u can c functions 4 that.

  • 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));

    You've been down this path before  - and the response is exactly the same.
    how to replace cursor logic
    And I'll suggest that you post the entire code - since you repeatedly delete 2 table variables but only populate one. The setting of @maxID also seems to have no purpose. And perhaps the issue here isn't the cursor but the general approach.  Who knows
    - but it appears you may have prematurely assumed that the cursor is the problem.

  • How to use customize mouse cursor?

  • How do I get cursor up to language on top right during a macro?  Mouse cannot be used.

    I am using Word for the Mac on a Mac Pro 2011, ver 14.4.8; 3.7Ghz clock, 16Gb mem, 1Tb SSD.  I am trying to make a macro to toggle between 2 different
    languages (english & hebrew), as I change many times during a long document I am working on.  As you know the macro will not allow mouse cursor input, so
    my question is "How do I get the cursor up to the top right ribbon next to todays date, to access the two languages?"  Thank you for any input.  My operating
    system is OS X Yosemite, ver 10.10.2.

    Word for Mac does not support correct Hebrew.  I recommend you use any other app for text that contains this script:  Pages, TextEdit, Mellel, Nisus Writer, Open/LibreOffice, etc.

  • How do I stop the spinning wheel that replaced the cursor in a Word document?

    How do I stop the spinning wheel that replaced the cursor in a Word document?

    Something is causing Word to lock up.  Restart the laptop and/or reinstall Office/Word to fix the instability.  Maybe even a bad plugin or document could be causing this if it's only happening when you open a particular doc.

  • How to extract the mouse cursor image without using JNI

    I want to get the image of the mouse cursor of the system using java. The Robot class captures the screen only, but the mouse icon image is not the part of the screen, so it is not easily detected. But we can get the mouse cursor position using API, but how to get the exact image icon, without using JNI. I don't want to generate my own cursor at that position.

    I am building a Remote Desktop kinda app using java..... I want the screen of the remote comp to be viewed on my screen and generate events from my machine to the remote machine. So, I am capturing the screen images of the remote machine. But the cursor is not part of the screen object. i want to extract the cursor image icon from the remote machine to my machine and render the image.
