Some additional information:
There are three messages you can use in such a case that are sent
every 200 ms.
. Idle does not expects that the cursor is within any control rect
and will be sent to the current card continuously: avoid to use it
for this reason :-)
. MouseWithin (like mouseStillDown) will be only sent to a control
when the mouse hovers it even if the cursor is not moved: less
intrusive yet :-)
. MouseMove will be only sent to a control when the mouse is moved
within the control rect: this one is the less overloading CPU use: as
soon as you can use it, prefer it :-)
But in your case, MouseWithin seems to be the more appropriate
because the cursor will change even if the mouse is not moved.

Hello folks,
Was wondering how to change the mouse cursor behavior, when user
presses either ctrl or shift key? Like in photoshop with select
tool where u can add to selection by pressing shift and remove
from selection by pressing ctrl? If anyone has implemented
anything like this, any help would be appreaciated. Thank you!

To achieve this you can use a mouseWithin handler:
on mouseWithin
if the shiftKey is dow then set the cursor to x
else if the optionKey is down then set the cursor to y
else set the cursor to z
lock cursor
end mouseWithin
-------------------------------------
on mouseLeave
unlock cursor
end mouseLeave
By default mouseWithin will be sent every 200 ms but you can
adjust this value by setting the idleRate (or idleTicks) property.
