current() [1/2]

static xtd::forms::cursor xtd::forms::cursor::current ( )

static

Gets a cursor object that represents the mouse cursor.

Returns

A cursor that represents the mouse cursor. The default is cursor::none.

Remarks

Setting the current property changes the cursor currently displayed. The application may or may not continue to listen for mouse events. To signal that the application should not respond to mouse events during a long-running operation, use the application::use_wait_cursor property. In most cases, however, it's better to use a background thread to manage a long-running operation, and leave your user interface accessible to the user.
