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.

View 1 RepliesI am currently creating a program that will change the cursor's image and let it stay like that until the user clicks use default image button. I do not mean like
Me.Cursor = New Cursor("C:\cursor.ico")
I mean as in even if the user's cursor leaves the form, it will still display the custom cursor only.
I have got only this much done so far, and the code is not 100% working either.
Private Sub ChangeCursorButton_Click()
System.Windows.Forms.Cursor.Hide() 'only hides the cursor when your mouse is on the form, need to fix that
Me.Cursor = New Cursor("cursor.ico") 'had no choice but to use this for now, even if when your cursor is out of the form it will revert to the original.

The code only works if your cursor is on the form. If its not, it doesn't work as intended.
I need the code to work that the cursor will hide the original cursor and let the custom cursor I declared shown.
I have a program that reads pixel colors in other applications, I've got the program working correctly but trying to hovor your mouse over a single pixel on the screen using the standard mouse "Arrow" pointer is a little difficult. I've created a custom cursor that is a cross hair of sorts that makes it easier to target specific pixels, is there a way to change the mouse curse to a specified cursor when the mouse is NOT over the controlling form?

View 10 RepliesOnce the Print Button is clicked, the form textboxes clear as intended, table data appended - ready for the next report data entry.
However, I would like to have the cursor return to the 1st textbox on the form which is assigned TabIndex number 1. (without re-loading the form)
I can detect the type of mouse cursor (normal, hand etc) inside the form but i need to detect it when the cursor is outside the form.
View 2 RepliesOn my vb.net 2010 form the textbox which has tab stop 0 does get the focus when the form is opened but the cursor is not blinking. I know textbox 0 has the focus because if you start typing right after the form opens the characters show there. The cursor property of textbox 0 is set to Ibeam. This is my first-ever VB 2010 form. My 2008 forms work fine and my workaround is to do the project in 2008.

How to make the form follow the cursor or mouse smoothly?
View 9 Repliesyou know how you can set the windows taskbar to appear and disappear when the position of the mouse is all the way at the bottom? i want to do the same thing with my form when the mouse is in the top left corner of screen.or perhaps you can suggest to me a different way to do this. the user will probably just need to set those trackbars just several times during their usage.
View 1 RepliesI set the form's size with Me.Size = New System.Drawing.Size(500, 500). I display the mouse cursor's position when the event Form1_MouseMove fires. At the bottom right corner of the form, I read the coordinates 483,460 (instead of 500,500) I precise that the upper left corner has the coordinates 0,0.I also notice that the size of a control differs from the form's size. for example if Picbox1.height = Form1.height, then the Picbox will be bigger than the displayed Form1.
