setting a cursor to an embedded resource cursor

setting a cursor to an embedded resource cursor

• Brian Lyttle

  Well, when I'm using the windows.forms class, I get an convert error. It seems that WinFX uses windows.input.cursor for it images and the compiler can't convert windows.forms.cursor to them. When I don't us Windows.forms.cursor, the error is an argument overload because windows.input.cursor expects only 1 argument. String cursorfile or stream cursorstream

  Sorry, i don't have experience with WinFX. But you can still use the .NET classes when you are working with WinFX, so why it doesn't work Do you get an exception or can't you compile the code because of errors

  This should work, do you get any exceptions
  Did you make sure your cursor is marked as Embedded Resource
  
  The documentation about this ctor: Cursor Constructor (Type, String).

  You can take a look at the MSAvalon.Windows.Input.CursorTypeConverter.

  I do have to say that I'm working in VS.NET 2005 and not using windows forms, but WinFX Window, or shouldn't that make any difference I found out that the cursor I'm using is of the type System.windows.input.cursor :-s
