Hi all,

I am wondering how to create a custom cursor. I see the MarbleWidget::setCursor() call, but it doesn't seem to be working properly. For instance, if I choose to implement my new cursor from a custom right click menu, it will change to the new shape, but will change back as soon as I click or move the mouse.

Thanks in advance,
Matt

This seems like it is describing your problem; does QApplication::setOverrideCursor() do what you are trying to accomplish?

Another thing you'd have to do is to replace the custom arrow cursor Marble uses. They are in data/bitmaps/cursor_*.png. If you can't change them there directly, you could load a custom .qrc file that contains your custom arrow cursors and place them with "/marble/cursor/*.png" qrc keys to override the ones Marble installs (see line ~220 in src/lib/MarbleWidgetInputHandler.cpp).
