Cursor Image

[Paladon]

Hello, how can i change the mouse/cursor image ingame (using triggers)?

 

[real138]

Hide the mouse cursor for player and move and have a periodic trigger that moves an image to position of mouse. Not sure if the mouse cursor when hiden also disables functionality. Try and see. There is no one function that changes the Mouse Cursor I have already looked for it :/

Hope this helps,

that moves an image to position of mouse.

That's the problem. How can i detect the current position of the mouse?
And no, hiding the cursor doesnt cancel the functionality, but that's not important.

aha... i just looked at the functions again it detects mouse click not mouse position :/ let me take a look I think alot of people would like to know this.

According to Blizzard they have added a Mouse API, dunno if the whole API came with the beta.

The reason for the need, however, is quite simple: We got a custom UI with Spellbuttons, but we're in need of AoE Spells as well. Now we need a way to "choose an area", that's why we thought a manipulated cursor can do it.
~Maybe, there's also another possibility. (?)

I went through the entire MPQ files. There is no support for mouse functionality atm. You can change the icon in data editor/cursor/.dds
