Syntax

FUNCTION MouseIcon () AS IPicture PTR
PROPERTY MouseIcon (BYVAL pic AS IPicture PTR)

Description

Returns or sets a custom image (typically an .ico or .cur file) to the mouse cursor when it is positioned over the grid.

Remarks

To use a custom icon, you must set two properties in tandem:

  • MousePointer: Must be set to 99 - flexCustom.
  • MouseIcon: Must be assigned a valid picture object.

If the file cannot be loaded or is invalid, the control silently falls back to the default cursor.

Example

' Step 1: Set the pointer to custom mode grid.MousePointer = 99

' Step 2: Load the specific icon or cursor file grid.MouseIcon = LoadPicture("C:\Icons\MyCustomCursor.cur")
