Hi everybody, I have troubles using the function "GUISetCursor" properly. My script generates a small GUI and opens an image in IrfanView. If the user hits the button "$p_coord" on the GUI, the GUI shall be hidden, IrfanView shall become active and the mousepointer shall turn into a cross (as long hovering over IrfanView). Once clicked into IrfanView, the cursor shall turn into a nordinary mousepointer again. Unfortunately, the cross doesn't appear until the user clicks into IrfanView manually. Then the mousepointer changes for the duration of the click into the cross. Can anybody tell why this is happening? Here is the relevant code: GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hGUI) ;the autoit gui is hidden ; Loop until the user exits: While 1 Switch GUIGetMsg() Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE ExitLoop Case $p_coord WinSetState("Bicon Coordinator","",@SW_HIDE) ;the autoit gui is hidden $Handle = WinActivate ( "IrfanView") ; IrfanView is activated GUISetCursor (15,1,$Handle) ;Cursor should be turned into a cross - this is what fails :-( While 1 If _IsPressed ("01", $hDLL) Then ;Once a mousclick by the user is performed... GUISetCursor (2) EndIf EndSwitch WEnd dejhost
