Hour Glass Cursor?

Can I set the cursor to an hour glass to give some indication that the server is alive and busy?
Or any other form of indication?

Window1.MouseCursor = System.Cursors.Wait // ? - For desktop apps

nope no luck…

Self.Cursor = System.WebCursors.Wait

Running under chrome… I don’t see the cursor change.

I used Cursor.WebCursors.Automatic to change it back when the ‘wait’ was over…

If me.Caption = "Wait" Then self.Cursor = System.WebCursors.Wait me.Caption = "Standard" Else self.Cursor = System.WebCursors.StandardPointer me.Caption = "Wait" End If

I placed this code in the action event of a button on a web page. This toggles the webpage cursor between the two states. It doesn’t change the button cursor though.

If me.Caption = "Wait" Then self.Cursor = System.WebCursors.Wait me.Cursor = System.WebCursors.Wait me.Caption = "Standard" Else self.Cursor = System.WebCursors.StandardPointer me.Cursor = System.WebCursors.StandardPointer me.Caption = "Wait" End If

This does both.

If you have a container or dialog open you’ll probably want to change the cursor for them also.

I also use Chrome on Windows 7.

you have to put self.Cursor = System.WebCursors.Wait in a WebThread
