| Description | In WPF, we can load and use a custom cursor like this:
<Window x:Class="WpfApp.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
xmlns:local="clr-namespace:WpfApp"
mc:Ignorable="d"
Title="MainWindow" Height="350" Width="525">
<Window.Resources>
<ResourceDictionary>
<Cursor x:Key="CursorMagnify">C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\VC\atlmfc\include\res\magnify.cur</Cursor>
</ResourceDictionary>
</Window.Resources>
<Grid Cursor="{StaticResource CursorMagnify}">
<TextBlock>test</TextBlock>
</Grid>
</Window>
Our application uses a lot custom cursors (more than 30). Thus, we need a way to support this in NoesisGUI.
In longer term, you may want to implement the Cursor class with similar capabilities as WPF does. But in shorter term, we only need to designate a custom cursor ID to the FrameworkIElement.
For example, we can write in XAML
<Grid Cursor="Custom_MyCursor"></Grid>
which is the same as below in code behind
Grid::SetCursor(Cursor_Custom /* new enum entry "/, "MyCursor" /* ID string */);
and which causes the cursor callback is called with parameters Cursor_Custom and "MyCursor".
Then inside the client integration code, I can map the tuple {Cursor_Custom, "MyCursor"} to any custom cursor I want.
