Here is a snippet from a bit of code I've been working on: Guide::SetCursor(const char *name) { static GdkCursor * hglass = gdk_cursor_new(GDK_WATCH); GdkWindow *w = window->window; if( strcmp(name, "hourglass") == 0 ) { gdk_window_set_cursor(w, hglass); gtk_widget_set_sensitive(this->window, false); } else { gdk_window_set_cursor(w, NULL); gtk_widget_set_sensitive(this->window, true); } } Hard coding the "hourglass" string is horrible but necessary for backwards compatibility. The first window is a GtkWindow * contained within the class.
