I'm putting the finishing touches to a fullscreen Winforms Application in VB (.net 3.5, VS2008). I need to hide the mouse cursor, so I've used:
Me.Cursor.hide()
this works exactly as you'd expect, until a timer triggered event runs (and no, the timer doesn't call Cursor.Show(),ANY event running seems to trigger this, and I have a lot of timers triggering events to control various aspects of my application).What I really want to accomplish is to have my application work like in Media Player, where the mouse cursor is hidden until I move the mouse or cancel fullscreen.Is there any way to hide the cursor until I move the mouse, close my form or exit fullscreen? I've tried lots of things, but can't find anything that actually works correctly (all due to triggered events running).
you 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.
Is there a way in the RichTextBox to change the Blinking cursor to a blinking _ like is dos or hide it all together? Or is there another object that I can use to simulate a dos prompt without it actually being a dos prompt where I can write text to it via code?

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?
I have an application (OziExplorer) which I launch from my application. The OziExplorer API allows my application to intercept mouse single and double click operations. To make the integration of my application with OziExplorer easier for the user, I'dlike to be able to change the OziExplorer mouse icon, from my applicationto match the tool they have chosen in my application. Is this possible?

Is there a way to tell which mouse shape/cursor is currently active? I've been playing around with Cursor.Current but I can't figure it out.I don't even know if Cursor.
i'm trying to work on a seamless 'help' system on my new application, so that throughout the application, people can hover over different aspects of it to display a small window of help, which follows the cursor until the user leaves the aspect they hovered over. I have had a look around and can't find any good code for this, and tried some myself without success.
I'm creating an app where I don't want to allow the cursor to leave the form, even when the mouse moves.Would it be something to type into pongMain_MouseLeave ? Something like Cursor.Stop () is all I
I'm listening for the WM_SETCURSOR messages and setting the cursor there, it works most times, but not always. I've seen two other cases that I need to catch:
WM_PAINT: At least after a WM_LBUTTONDOWN the cursor is painted somehow without calling WM_SETCURSOR... WM_CAPTURECHANGED: Happening sometimes when the mouse is down and moving it.
Even doing all this the cursor sometimes flickers and the original one can be seen in some cases (eg: the instant when you roll over some object that sets the cursor to something else). I've been trying to look for some other patterns or messages but didn't see anything that would solve this problem.
I want the cursor to change when moving over pictures. Can it be done prorammatically? The solutions offered in the forum do not function. Changing the cursor in the property window of a picture is refused.
