<hr><h2><a name="details"></a>Detailed Description</h2>
The QCursor class provides a mouse cursor with an arbitrary shape.
<p>
This class is used for mainly two things; to create mouse cursors to be
associated with widgets and to get and set the position of the mouse
cursor.
<p>Qt has a number of standard cursor shapes, but you can also make
custom cursor shapes based on a <a href="qbitmap.html">QBitmap</a>, a mask and a hotspot.
<p>To associate a cursor with a widget, use <a href="qwidget.html#9b6e22">QWidget::setCursor</a>().  To
associate a cursor with all widgets (normally for a short period of
time), use <a href="qapplication.html#07e1f1">QApplication::setOverrideCursor</a>().
<p>To set a cursor shape use <a href="#645175">QCursor::setShape</a>() or use the QCursor constructor
which takes the shape as argument, or use one of the <em>predefined</em> cursors:
<p><ul>
<li> <code>arrowCursor</code> - standard arrow cursor
<li> <code>upArrowCursor</code> - upwards arrow
<li> <code>crossCursor</code> - crosshair
<li> <code>waitCursor</code> - hourglass/watch
<li> <code>ibeamCursor</code> - ibeam/text entry
<li> <code>sizeVerCursor</code> - vertical resize
<li> <code>sizeHorCursor</code> - horizontal resize
<li> <code>sizeBDiagCursor</code> - diagonal resize (/)
<li> <code>sizeFDiagCursor</code> - diagonal resize (\)
<li> <code>sizeAllCursor</code> - all directions resize
<li> <code>blankCursor</code> - blank/invisible cursor
<li> <code>splitVCursor</code> - vertical splitting
<li> <code>splitHCursor</code> - horziontal splitting
<li> <code>pointingHandCursor</code> - a pointing hand
<li> <code>forbiddenCursor</code> - a slashed circle
</ul>
<p>If you want to create a cursor with an own bitmap, use either the QCursor
constructor which takes a a bitmap and a mask or the constructor which
takes a pixmap as arguments.
<p>To set or get the position of the mouse cursor use the static methods
<a href="#5bce2b">QCursor::pos</a>() and <a href="#a1419a">QCursor::setPos</a>().
<p>See also  <a href="qwidget.html">QWidget</a> and <a href="guibooks.html#fowler">GUI Design Handbook: Cursors.</a>

<hr><h2>Member Function Documentation</h2>
<h3 class="fn"><a name="cb794b"></a>QCursor::QCursor()</h3>
<p>Constructs a cursor with the default arrow shape.
<h3 class="fn"><a name="feb07e"></a>QCursor::QCursor(const<a href="qbitmap.html">QBitmap</a>&amp;bitmap, const<a href="qbitmap.html">QBitmap</a>&amp;mask, inthotX=-1, inthotY=-1)</h3>
<p>Constructs a custom bitmap cursor.
<p><em>bitmap</em> and
<em>mask</em> make up the bitmap.
<em>hotX</em> and
<em>hotY</em> define the hot spot of this cursor.
<p>If <em>hotX</em> is negative, it is set to the <a href="#bf6796">bitmap</a>().width()/2.
If <em>hotY</em> is negative, it is set to the bitmap().height()/2.
<p>The cursor <em>bitmap</em> (B) and <em>mask</em> (M) bits are combined this way:
<ol>
<li> B=1 and M=1 gives black.
<li> B=0 and M=1 gives white.
<li> B=0 and M=0 gives transparency.
<li> B=1 and M=0 gives an undefined result.
</ol>
<p>Use the global color <code>color0</code> to draw 0-pixels and <code>color1</code> to draw
1-pixels in the bitmaps.
<p>Allowed cursor sizes depend on the display hardware (or the underlying
window system). We recommend using 32x32 cursors, because this size
is supported on all platforms. Some platforms also support 16x16, 48x48
and 64x64 cursors.
<p>See also  <a href="qbitmap.html#12bed2">QBitmap::QBitmap</a>() and <a href="qpixmap.html#68a75d">QBitmap::setMask</a>().
<h3 class="fn"><a name="ae3466"></a>QCursor::QCursor(const<a href="qpixmap.html">QPixmap</a>&amp;pixmap, inthotX=-1, inthotY=-1)</h3>
<p>Constructs a custom pixmap cursor.
<p><em>pixmap</em> is the image
(usually it should have a mask (set using <a href="qpixmap.html#68a75d">QPixmap::setMask</a>())
<em>hotX</em> and
<em>hotY</em> define the hot spot of this cursor.
<p>If <em>hotX</em> is negative, it is set to the pixmap().width()/2.
If <em>hotY</em> is negative, it is set to the pixmap().height()/2.
<p>Allowed cursor sizes depend on the display hardware (or the underlying
window system). We recommend using 32x32 cursors, because this size
is supported on all platforms. Some platforms also support 16x16, 48x48
and 64x64 cursors.
<p>Currently, only black-and-white pixmaps can be used.
<p>See also  <a href="qpixmap.html#0b95b1">QPixmap::QPixmap</a>() and <a href="qpixmap.html#68a75d">QPixmap::setMask</a>().
<h3 class="fn"><a name="cd8027"></a>QCursor::QCursor(constQCursor&amp;c)</h3>
<p>Constructs a copy of the cursor <em>c.</em>
<h3 class="fn"><a name="58d6c9"></a>QCursor::QCursor(intshape)</h3>
