Re: Default cursor
So, reading the dictionary entry for "reset cursors" it looks like you can't create your own set, you can only change the built-in set. The problem with that is that I will not have an arrow any more, no matter what I'm working on. I'll always get the custom cursor, even though I only want it to appear in one project. It sounds like there is no other option though. -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | jac...@hyperactivesw.com HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.com On May 7, 2023 2:18:32 PM "J.
