Get current mouse cursor - exists?

[Michael Aivaliotis]

I need a way to get the current mouse cursor type. Is there any way to do this in LabVIEW? I need this because I want to know when a user's mouse is hovering over the divider between two columns of a multicolumn listbox. I figure that if there was a way to detect the cursor change then this would be a good indicator.

You could use the previous cursor ID, and set it directly back. A lookup table can be made with this code:

But what about the point to row with a divider width of 3 pixels? It's still not ideal but should be better.

You could potentially use the Windows function CopyImage, but that looks like a bad solution to me.

I think I would also go with something along the lines of Ton's suggestion of calculating the position based on the column widths.
