Show the hand cursor over a simple label

I have searched for this for a long time but i cant seem to
find the answer. All I want, is that when the mouse passes over a
label it changes from the arrow to the hand, like it does with the
link button component.
Thx

Thx for the answer
Well now i got 2 more questions,
how come the useHandCursor property wasnt enough
And where do i find this kind of information, because i have
plenty more questions, more about style than data, and reference
book are not out yet.
Thx again

  • How to show the 'hand' cursor on thumbnail link?

    Hi
    I'm a novice user, today is the 3rd time I've even worked in Dreamweaver ..I used to use Frontpage 2000 so this a quite a change for me. <:)
    I'm making a simple picture gallery using image thumbnails and wanted the full view images to load in a custom sized windows. I used the 'onclick'  and 'open browser window'  behaviour for each thumbnail and previewed it in IE & Safari. The windows were great, but I noticed the standard arrow pointer appears over the thumbnails even though they are links to full images..so nobody would know they are clickable. : /
    Is there some way in Dreamweaver CS4 to have the cursor change to the 'hand' form to indicated this is a link? I'm guessing it might be something to do with an 'on mouseover' trigger on the thumbnail, but I didn't see anything about cursors.
    Apologies in advance if I did not explain this in the correct terms or if it's a code issue that can't be addressed in Dreamweaver.
    Shelley

    Why not use a null link on the thumbnail to attach the behaviour to? and add the return false.
    <a href="javascript:;"><img src="FW-gradient-slice.jpg" alt="" name="Image1" width="185" height="176" id="Image1" onclick="MM_openBrWindow('FW-gradient-slice.jpg','','width=600,height=600');return false" /></a>
    Select the thumbnail and in the property inspectory, in the link box, type in javascript:; 
    Then apply the Open Browser window to the thumbnail as usual.
    You may want to look at using David's Smart Link Dreamweaver extension - very easy to use and valid:
    http://foundationphp.com/tools/index.php
    You will also need to add the following rule to the stylesheet (or in the head of the document if the style rules are there), to remove the blue border around the images...
    a img {border: none;}

  • Stopping the Hand Cursor

    Okay, don't ask why I'm publishing to Flash 5, but I am!
    I've got a flyout panel that sometimes comes out over buttons
    or other interactive things. These buttons are clickable "through"
    the flyout panel -- which is a bad thing.
    So I thought I would make an invisible "click catcher" button
    and put it on the lowest layer of the flyout artwork. And it does
    work, except now the entire flyout panel shows the hand cursor over
    the whole area.
    Normally I would Button.useHandCursor=false, but since I"m
    publishing to Flash 5 that isn't an option.
    Also the pages this will appear over are dynamic (and not
    entirely within my control) so I can't make the underneath buttons
    invisible or anything like that.
    Does anybody have any creative ideas?

  • Forcing the cursor to show the hand with useHandCursor

    Hi,
    I have a button that I disable after a user clicks it, then the button is enabled when the animation is completed.
    I set useHandCursor = false
    after the user clicks the button.
    Then I set useHandCursor = true
    after the movie completes.
    But the hand cursor doesn't display until the user moves the mouse.
    I want the hand cursor to show if the user has left the cursor on the button without them needing to move the mouse.  Is there away to force the hand cursor to show if it is hovering above a button when useHandCursor is set to true?
    Thanks!

    Try using buttonMode instead - works for me without having to move the mouse.
    someButton.buttonMode = false;
    someButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, test);
    function test(e:MouseEvent){
         someButton.buttonMode = true;
    Should do what you want.

  • How do I show a hand cursor for a text entry box button

    I'm using Captivate 5 and have run into an annoying problem...
    For a general click box, there is an option for "Show hand cursor over hit area" which will result in the cursor changing to a hand when rolling over the click box region in the published presentation.  I want to do the same for the 'submit' button in the text entry box. Is this even possible?  I'm hoping to keep things consistent as a user is clicking through the presentation.
    I find it odd that it doesn't have the same property as found on the clickbox considering it has the same purpose.  I'm using a background screenshot image to simulate an entry in an application, so I'm actualy hiding the submit button, but the button I want them to press lacks the hand cursor that would indicate it is clickable.  I don't want to use a click box to allow the user to move on because I still want a failure in the text entry box to prevent the user from moving on.
    Hope that all makes sense.

    Hi there
    Another approach is to use a Rollover Caption. Just remove any text and configure the caption as transparent. Then layer the Rollover area over the part where you want the hand to change to a cursor. The net effect will be that the cursor change will occur. Clicking will then result in triggering the underlying Submit button, which appers to be invisible and layered over an image.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Please Help!!! How to use the Hand cursor on an Image !!!!

    Hi,
    I am sorry for cross posting but nobody seem to know this, i need this as soon as possible.
    I have a main Jframe which contains a Jpanel which contains a jscrollpane. THe image is in scrollpane and i would like to use the Hand cursor to move the image up and down the jscrollpane.
    Can someone tell me or show me how can i use a hand cursor on an image
    I would appreciate if someone can show me a simple example.
    THanks in advance.

    Well. I would call setCursor with a cursor of type Cursor.HAND_CURSOR or something on the Component where you want the hand. Then you could add a MouseMotionListener to the Component. in mouseDragged() you scroll the scrollpane programmatically according to the MouseEvents getX() and getY().

  • How to avoid the hand cursor on non navigating charts

    I have a requirement from the user to avoid the hand cursor when the charts are non navigating.
    Is there any way to avoid the hand cursor.?
    When we move the mouse over the bar chart, the pointer cursor gets changed to hand cursor. But there is no navigation in the charts that i'm showing.
    The presence of hand cursor in bar charts creates confusion to the end user when there is no navigation in charts.
    It always misleads end users and they ask if the chart is complete or not since there is no navigation.
    So i would like to avoid it, but how can i avoid it.??

  • How to get the 'hand' cursor on an ALV drill down report?

    I have a drill down on PO # going to trans ME23N that is working great.
    But I have noticed on my other drill downs (E.G for billing doc VF03) that when the report is displayed the drill down field value is a) underlined and b) has a 'Hand' appear when you place the cursor over the billing document field.
    This does not happen on my PO # - it is not highlighted with an underscore, nor do you get the small hand  - but it does work when you double click the field.
    The field I am using on the ALV report is RSEG-EBELN.  This is not a KEY field in the table - perhaps that is why it does not have the underscore and the 'hand'.
    Thanks!
    Scott

    Here it is.
    When you build your field cat use the below code.
    DATA : x_fieldcat TYPE slis_fieldcat_alv.
    * Single click on the field will trigger double click event.Also, a hand
    * will appear when the cursor navigates to the field
      X_FIELDCAT-HOTSPOT = 'X'.

  • I can't see the hand-cursor to controlled slides from a Quicktime Interact.

    Suddenly, my hand-cursor disappeared to controlled Hyperlinks from presentations in Quicktimes Interactives, make with Keynote.
    How can I get it again?
    I search in preferences, but I don't know how to appeared it.
    Thanks

    Ok, that didn't work and only closed out this window in discussions. After it closed this one I tried again doing the same but nothing. Makes sense though because if it closed this one out it would close everything else out on my desktop too. This is like a giant screen saver. All my other .jpg icons are still on my desktop over the top of this big pic. Is it possible this is what it is, just a screensaver? I did the same with another pic from the same website and it didn't do this. I clicked on my mouse to save a pic to the desktop and this monstrous thing appeared.  My dock is still there and the top bar that has the apple, Safari, edit, etc., but not anything else that you would normally click on to close a window.

  • Hiding the Hand Cursor

    Good day
    Is there any way to suppress the system hand cursor from
    appearing when hovering over a hyperlink?
    It overlies my custom cursor. TextFiled must be mouseEnabled.
    Mouse.hide() doesn't do it.
    Thanks!

    I dont know if the following will work in a JApplet but heres some code - (just make the cursor.gif a transparent gif)
    Toolkit tk = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit();
    Image im = new ImageIcon("cursor.gif").getImage();
    Cursor cursor = tk.createCustomCursor(im,new Point(2,2),"custom cursor");
    this.setCursor(cursor);

  • Can the Add To Cart image render the hand cursor to look more like a clickable link?

    I have used a custom image for the add to cart tag - {tag_addtocart,<img src="/images/fg_buttonbuy.jpg" width="203" height="76" />} - however our client is worried people will be unsure if that's where they click to add the product to the cart as the cursor stays as the arrow and doesn't change to the hand like when clicking on other links.
    I was pointed to this page http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml_button_test and told I was able to customise my code so that it did render the hand. I've done a little bit of trial and error however am unsure how to add the button code to the add to cart tag.
    If anyone is able to assist it would be greatly appreciated!

    I tried the target the class but there was no class associated with the button rendered:
    <img src="/images/button.gif" alt="" onclick="AddToCart(83934,3349995,'',3,'','',false);return false;">
    Can I wrap it in <span class="button"><img . . .></span>? If so does it need to be assigned to the link. ie. .button img a { cursor:pointer; }
    Thanks.

  • My Ipod keeps restarting and showing the Apple Logo over and over....

    PLEASE HELP ME!!!! My Ipod keeps restarting, or turning off, I'm not sure which, but when it does that then it shows the Apple Logo, it will go to the main screen for maybe 1 second, but then it does this cycle over again. It has been doing this for a while now. It is also unresponsive, I and tried the R things but they didn't work either. I have tried plugging it up and it hasnt helped, I have no idea what to do. Oh and I havn't dropped it or anything, I have taken very good care of it. The only thing I can think of that ould be wrong with it is that my Dad had it plugged into his car radio, he says it started doing this action while it was plugged up to that, but I have no proof of that. He also plugged it into his computer, which has none of the Itunes software on it, to try to download my songs onto his computer, he says all the songs copied to his computer just fine. I plugged the Ipod into my Ihome and it froze up, when it unfroze I saw that I had all of my songs, but then it started to Turn off and show the Apple Logo. If you have any suggestions please contact me!!!!

    Genug geweint -
    nach 3 Wochen funktioniert es wieder-I fixed it, after 3 weeks
    leider kann ich nicht sagen, an was es liegt/
    sorry, but I am not able to tell you what the problem was
    Da es jetzt geht, ohne dass ich an Vista etwas geändert hätte, vermute ich, dass eines der Apple Programme des Fehler verursacht.
    I did not change anything with Vista but it works now. Though I think the failure occured because of one of the Apple products.
    Schritt für Schritt / step by step
    1. iPod auswerfen / diconnect your iPod
    2. holen Sie sich alle wichtigen Windowsupdates/
    update your windows
    3. holen Sie sich iTunes noch einmal aber installieren Sie es nicht/
    download iTunes again, but don't install it.
    4. deinstalliere alle Appleprogramme
    (ich nutze nur die 6 Apple Programme, die zwangsweise mit iTunes installiert werden, ob es Sinn macht auch Safari zu löschen kann ich nicht sagen,weil ich es nicht nutze,aber vielleicht sollte man alles rausschmeißen)
    deinstall all Apple-software
    (I use only the software wich comes together with iTunes. I don't use safari. You might deinstall it as well, if you use it on a PC)
    5. Verbinden Sie den iPod mit dem PC
    Ohne iTunes hörte der "Kampf" zwischen Windows und iTunes auf (logo!).
    Solange der iPod davor verbunden war gab es Fehlermeldungen sowohl von iTunes als auch von Windows und der iPod flog bei beiden Systemen raus. Jetzt ließ Windows den iPod in der Liste der angeschlossenen Geräte. Ich habe ihn neu formatiert und dann ausgeworfen.
    Connect your iPod.
    Without iTunes the struggle between windows and iTunes was over.
    As long as iTunes was installed and a iPod was connected I got a notice of a failure from iTunes and windows. both of them disconnected the iPod. Now windows kept the iPod an I was able to format it, then I disconnected it.
    6. Da ich keine Zeit mehr hatte habe ich den Computer heruntergefahren und erst mehrere Stunden später wieder angemacht. (ob das spätere Hochfahren von Bedeutung ist werde ich wohl nie erfahren, ich erwähne es nur, um möglichst keinen Schritt auszulassen)
    I drove down the computer and turned it on again after a few hours. (Is it necessary to wait a few hours? I don't know. I mention it only)
    7. Installieren Sie iTunes / install iTunes
    8. starten Sie iTunes / start iTunes
    9. verbinden Sie den iPod mit dem Computer / connect your iPod with your PC
    Bei mir haben die Fehlermeldungen aufgehört und ich konnte das "kaputte" Gerät wieder mit Musik, Filmen und Hörbüchern füttern.
    Ich hoffe es klappt auch bei Ihnen.
    In my case there were no further messages of a failure. I got music, movies and audiobooks on my daughters iPod.
    Interessieren würde mich schon, warum ein System plötzlich spinnt, obwohl ich "außer" updates nichts verändert hatte.
    Why happened it???
