Check that the mouse pointer has changed

[gamegeezer]

Hello All,

A noob here and I am looking for any snippets that may show how you can move the mouse (I can do that) and check if the mouse pointer has changed. Like when the mouse crosses a hyperlink. Any help is much appreciated (I did some searches first but did not really find anything that would help me).

~Thanks, Jim

Have at look at the MouseGetCursor() function in the help file.

Thanks Marlo,

I see how I can use MouseGetCursor(), but it would appear that if the mousecursor is not a prerecognized id (a circle or hand ) then a 1 is returned. Is there a way to tell the difference between a two... unknown cursors? Lets say we go from the hand to a spinning globe and back to the hand?

~Thanks, Jim
