It's the only way I could find to detect when the mouse enters any particular screen, using NSTrackingArea with -[NSResponder mouseEntered:]. My code for this is simple and quite effective except when a retina display is in issue. It's also very easy to reset the tracking areas when the user changes screen parameters. > It seems like you have three options. > 2.

It remains to be seen whether this will solve the retina display and Core Animation issues. I have left the multi-screen window for mouse tracking in place at the same time, at least for testing purposes. > 3. Try cursor replacement.

Can a cursor be created that animates using Core Animation? -- Bill Cheeseman - b...@cheeseman.name _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
