Douglas, I tried a year ago to make a nice Mickey hand cursor 16x16 but - colored cursors didn't seem supported - colors didn't dispay correctly - transparency masks not supported on non-bitmap images.
No one ever helped so Im stuck as you are... I think there's a bugzilla for this too... cheers Xavier > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of > Douglas Westbrook > Sent: Monday, March 21, 2005 06:02 > To: How to use Revolution > Subject: Re: Can Revolution create a large, colored cursor? > > Try mousewithin > On mousemove is a better way to set a graphic to the mouseloc > but it sounds like mousewithin is what you need. > On Mar 20, 2005, at 10:44 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > > As a beginner I'm really finding this forum extremely > helpful.
