Changing cursor in app

beginners
#1

Im trying to create an app that when you press on a button, the cursor changes. For example, lets say I press a button to draw, the cursor changes into a pencil. Any ideas? I’ve tried using ofHideCursor() and then replacing that with an image but i’m not sure how to go about it.

you may try to :

  • declare an ofImage in your header file
  • load your cursor image in the setup() method
  • center your image around your mouse position & draw your image in the draw() method
