How can a control's cursor be set from a resource file?
The code below does not work, although the resource itself is found and loaded.

Panel1.cursor := LoadCursor(0, 'CURSOR_NAME');
The same way as in delphi:

const
  MyUserCursor = 1;
Screen.Cursors[MyUserCursor] := LoadCursor(HInstance, 'Cursor_Name');
Panel1.Cursor := MyUserCursor;

LoadCursor works on windows only.

To write cross platform code use:

var
  Cur: TCursorImage;
begin
  Cur := TCursorImage.Create;
  Cur.LoadFromResourceName('Cursor_Name');
  Screen.Cursors[MyUserCursor] := Cur.ReleaseHandle;
  Cur.Free;
  Panel1.Cursor := MyUserCursor;
end;

Best regards,
