Control::CursorChanged Event

 

Occurs when the value of the Cursor property changes.

Namespace:   System.Windows.Forms
Assembly:  System.Windows.Forms (in System.Windows.Forms.dll)

public:
event EventHandler^ CursorChanged {
	void add(EventHandler^ value);
	void remove(EventHandler^ value);
}

This event is raised if the Cursor property is changed by either a programmatic modification or user interaction.

For more information about handling events, see Handling and Raising Events.

The following code example demonstrates changing the mouse cursor using the Control::Cursor property, the Cursor class, and the Cursors class. The example creates a form that contains a ComboBox control, a Panel control, and a ListView control. TheComboBox contains all cursors provided by the Cursors class. When the user selects a mouse cursor in the ComboBox, the Control::Cursor property is set to the selected cursor, which updates the cursor for the Panel. The ListView is updated every time the Control::CursorChanged event occurs.
