Just create an Evas_Object* with desired cursor and enjoy. > Ok, if ecore_evas already has support for it (for fb) where it just draws a cursor object on top of the screen, then it should make it easy, and in which case, I guess we might not need a return value. I can only see the use case of an engine that has a cursor on screen with no way of changing the cursor's bitmap and no way to disable it, but it's such a rare case (if it even exists) that I suppose most people would just ignore that return value anyways. > Raster, what do you think? > And what do others think too? Gustavo convinced me enough so I'm good either way.
