How to set path to .cur with ChromeCursor plug-in
Quote from Talker on May 20, 2022, 4:53 pmI'm attempting to get the ChromeCursor plug-in to work. I tried the following two approaches but in both cases, Neo "does not understand the command":
FileToVar "[Embedded]640.cur" "[CursorPath]"
fbLoadCursor [CursorPath]and
SetVar "[CursorPath]" "[Embedded]640.cur"
fbLoadCursor [CursorPath]I am probably missing something basic. Any ideas for this?
Also, is there a way to change the text, hand, and busy cursors globally as well?

The system cursor can be controlled by plugins:
ksFunctions (Igor R.)
nzPlugIn Cursor (Christian Chauvin)(in addition, some plugins have the ability to change cursor for their objects)

I did not yet have the ksFunctions plug-in installed, although I do remember downloading it earlier. Interesting one! But I see I will need to do some Googling for the translation of the descriptions of the functions.
It indeed works very well for quickly changing the mouse pointer. However, restoring the previous pointer requires browsing to C:\Windows\Cursors (and hopefully finding the correct one) and does not restore any zooming settings done via Windows itself (PC Settings --> Accessibility --> Mouse pointer and touch --> Mouse pointer style) which can be a pain for users of the app :-(.
Is nzPlugIn Cursor from Christian Chauvin free? If so is it possible to upload it here?
By the way, I tried the demo of his nzPluginMouseFx plug-in. This did seem to completely restore the previous cursor, including its custom size. More importantly, the cursor change only lasted as long as the app is running (which might be good to make it less intrusive).
I tried contacting Christian about some of his plug-ins, but he never responded...

As far as I know it is a free plugin.
You can choose any free plugin (sometimes a trial version) from my library on my online course under Resources \ Plugins and Features Library.

It's going to take me at least a week to (quickly) test them all out, but that effort will be well spent.
You truly are a great asset to the Neo community!
