I have a timer event.
The timer checks records.
If the mouse is stationary when the timer is running the checks, the mouse pointer changes to a spinning wheel (Windows 10) and does not restore to normal until the mouse is moved.
If the check is negative, no update of the ui occurs. The check is very quick, 2-300 ms.
If you are moving the mouse when the check occurs, you don't see the spinning wheel at all. (Because it is quick).
How can I avoid the spinning wheel or at least reset it after the event runs. (Without moving the mouse).
I wanted to avoid users thinking the application is busy when it is not.
With thanks
