The reason for that title is i'm not sure what is wrong!


Basically when the mouse is over a certain object it should change the cursor image. I have loaded them all in OK but the only one that seems to work is the Pick Object(MouseX(),MouseY(),5,5) > 0 one. I don't know why. Could you help me shed some light on this?

Mainly, when it gets to the last If/Then, if it's not over object number 5, it will always change to mouse=0, regardless if it was changed to another mouse in one of the previous If/Then statements.

Your best bet is probably to call the Pick Object only once and store the result in a variable. Then use Select/Case to determine which mouse to change to. Like this:

po=Pick Object(mousex(),mousey(),3,7)
Select PO
Case 3,4
Change Mouse 1
EndCase
Case 5
Change Mouse 4
EndCase
Case 6
Change Mouse 3
EndCase
Case 7
Change Mouse 2
EndCase
Case Default
Change Mouse 0
EndCase
EndSelect

Wow thanks for that code. I never new Cases existed in DBPro. (I've used them a bit in C++ though)

EDIT: Oh it works its just that now it won't display the cursor. It just dissappears. Oh except for when changing mouse to 1

Did you load in your own mouse cursors yet?
