I have a user control, and want to be able to update its cursor while it is disabled. For example, say that I have a user control whose cursor is Default. The below code works ONLY when the user control is already enabled; if it is disabled the below code doesn't work and the cursor remains Default: Me.MY_USER_CONTROL.Cursor = System.Windows.Forms.Cursors.WaitCursor

View 3 RepliesThis VS010 solution is not providing my intended outcome as a custom override of a 'crosshair' or 'reticle' cursor e.Graphics.DrawPath() is the function that isn't working. This
WORKING solution demonstrates how it's supposed to work. The additonal PictureBox added to a Panel is, for reasons I don't understand, not allowing the 'new' cursor to appear.

How can I set the curosr to 'cursor.wait' for the whole display screen and not just for the application form? I have tried "Windows.Forms.Cursor.Current = Cursors.WaitCursor" And several variations but without success.
View 5 RepliesI have a custom cursor that I have as a ico file as cur files are only mono coloured and 32x32.
The only problem in using a ico file is that I can't set where the hot spot is and at the moment it is set in the middle of the icon which is no help
I was looking on the msdn website and it said to set the hotspot like this
Dim instance As Cursor
Dim value As Point
value = instance.HotSpot But I don't know how to set the point value to (0,54) which is where I want the hotspot to be located.
I have a form with many, many buttons but lets say ten, and I have named them one, two, three all the way up to ten. When I move the mouse over one of them, I want the name of it to appear on a label. When I move away the label should be empty. So when I point (not click) on "Three" that's what the label should say, and if I move on to the next button the label should read "Four"... I'm sure you get my point.
As you can see, what I really want is to get the name of the button under the cursor and store that name as a string, and then use that string to make things happen. With only ten buttons I can easily write ten MouseHover events, and ten MouseLeave events, one for each button, but that defeats the purpose of my question. I want to be able to write only one Hover and one Leave event and the use it for how many buttons I choose to use in my application.
I am currently writing a custom control, for a future project. The control uses custom cursors, but sometimes this strange error appears: Code generation for property 'Cursor' failed. Error was 'CursorConverter' is unable to convert 'System.Windows.Forms.Cursor' to 'System.ComponentModel.Design.Serialization.InstanceDescriptor'.

Maybe I have missed something obvious. Currently I am using the feedback interrupt to change the cursor to one of the Windows supplied cursors
Instead of using the pre-packaged cursors, is it possible to use my own custom-cursor (icon), and if so - are there any rules re size etc., or can I use something like a png/jpg etc.. ?
I have a custom cursor for the user to allow them to position text in PDF files. For the most part there never seems to be a problem, but a choice few people are seeing massive problems with this.
One particular client loads the program, and then loads a PDF document into it. Once the program has loaded when the user clicks he either doesn't get a custom cursor or the signiture blank that is to show up is above the frame that is to surround the blank.
The user is using Windows XP on a laptop and the software re-renders the cursor and box every time. There is a signiture tablet that the user buys to connect to this software, and the user also has expressed problems with the Tablet not staying connected.
I can provide pictures of the changes and code if anyone would like to tackle this?
interrupt this in between but can we change the cursor to hand shape on a articular control?

View 4 RepliesIn my app I have a pause and continue button. I capture the last active control when pause is clicked, change the Backcolor to let the user know where they were, from blue to red and leave the cursor there. What I would like to do without disabling and enabling all the controls on the form is to keep the cursor in the LastActiveControl no matter what until the continue button is clicked. In other words, tab, enter key, mouse click or nothing will make the cursor move until continue is clicked. Sound possible?
View 2 RepliesHow do I get the name of the (topmost?) control at the cursor position? The background: I implemented drag'n'drop from a dgv to a label and need to identify the control where the mouse button is released. I have enabled dropping on the label where the drop is going to take place. However, this label is the parent of say a hundred labels that are created dynamically in codebehind (I use this way to create a "dataview"). Therefore, I need to know which of these "child" labels the user drops the data onto.
I can get the mouseposition without problems (Me.PointToClient(Cursor.Position).ToString), but as I said, I can't get the name/text/ID of the control the user dropped the data on. Also, I ned to get the child control's name/ID/Text, not the parent label of course.In addition, it seems as if I can't select the row I click on in the dgv anymore, after I implemented the DoDragDrop on the CellMouseDown event. Any ideas? Should I use another event?
I have created a user control tha inherits from the NumericUpDown Control.Is it possible to set the cursor position within the control?I am validating the text OnKeyUp, and formatting it when it meets certain criteria.To do this i have to do me.text = Fomatted(Me.Text), which sets the cursor back to the position 0, i want to set it to the end of the text area.

View 4 RepliesI have a hobby of making webbrowsers. I'm writing a new one, but it has an old webbrowser control in it (CEXWB). This means that I am using IHTMLDocument(s) rather than normal HTMLDocuments. I'm in the process of implementing a ContextMenu, but I need to get the position of the mouse relative to the browser control, so using something like Cursor.Position won't work. The Webbrowser_MouseMove event also won't work. I'm not sure why. I also can't use WithEvents with a HtmlDocument (like in my webbrowser ContextMenu tutorial) as I cannot Convert A System.Windows.Forms.HtmlElement into an mshtml.IHTMLDocument2.
So far, I have this code:
'The event which fires when the ContextMenu for the browser Opens

View 1 RepliesI want to create a custom control that has a cursor like a regular text box, I tried using a line and a timer that makes the line 'Blink', but that wasn't too reliable because I had to change the location and background in the timer... I guess I could do it, but I wanted to ask my question here.
Basically what I am doing is creating a custom control to allow inputs as in fractions, sub/superscripts, etc.... The TextBox Control doesn't support text in that many locations.
How do you call the text that appears when holding cursor on a control as an explanation and how to implement it??? It has to be easy but I don't know how to do it For example Microsoft application functions all have it?

I am trying to change the cursor type to a crosshair but am having no luck. The program I am writing initially starts up as taskbar notfiy icon. Once one of the menu items is clicked the mouse cursor should change from an arrow to crosshair. This should remain like this when the mouse button is pressed again, held and then released and then it should go back to being an arrow cursor once again.To start off, I wrote the following code:
Private Sub changeMouseCursor(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles DisectMyScreenToolStripMenuItem.MouseLeave
Cursor = Cursors.Cross
End Sub
