Storing an API call (SetSystemCursor(cur,OCR_WAIT);

[jos100]

Hi !

I am making an application that also need to change the windows cursor.
I use "SetSystemCursor" and it works fine.
When i reboot windows, it has forgoten the changes.

Going maualy in to controlpanel and select mouspointer is not an option (custom application for a visual impaired person)

The alternative pointer cursor are self made and is not placed in c:\windows\cursers.

Sounds like you have some registry values to set when your program runs.

\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Cursors seems like where you need to go.

Or you need to set the cursor every time your program starts.

yes thats what i dont understand.

you say
"I am making an application that also need to change the windows cursor.
I use "SetSystemCursor" and it works fine.

so whats the problem when your app is setting the cursor when it loads.

if you want the cursor to be permanent then set it in control panel.
