Changing cursor

[Tha2ohSIX]

Hi everybody, after changing the mouse cursor when it moves over a hotspot, is there a way to switch it back to the cursor it was previously on when it leaves the hotspot?  Thanks for any help.

Hey I'm just working on this myself.  You can create an interaction for the non-hotspot that changes the cursor back.

ie:

if (gethotspotat(mouse.x, mouse.y)==0){
SetDefaultCursor();
}

An easier method to do this is on my to-do list, but for now yes an approach like Quintaros suggests should work fine.

I've been working on this for an hour and can't seem to figure it out.  I don't know what coordinates to put in place of mouse.x and mouse.y and where to put this in the script.  I just set mouse.x and mouse.y to 1, and 1, and I then tried putting it in the hotspot's script after where I set the mouse cursor to 9, and I tried it next in the room's "repeatedly execute".  Please help, this will be a major stepping stone in my game.  Thanks.

Sorry, I didn't know that editing my post wouldn't bump it to the top of the forum.  I was worried no one would notice this.

Put it in repeatedly_Execute, exactly as it is:

if (GetHotspotAt(mouse.x, mouse.y)==0){
SetDefaultCursor();
}

Do not replace the mouse variables, they contain the cursor's current position

OMG, I can't believe I didn't figure that out, lol.  I kept reading the "gethotspotat" thing in the manual over and over wondering what I was doing wrong.  THANK YOU!!!!!!!
