Morning,
I'm currently building a R/Gtk2 application (mostly through gWidgets actually) and I would like to change the cursor shape to something sensible in different contexts. Specifically, I require a "zoom in" and "zoom out" shape when the appropriate tool is activated.
This post (how can i change the shape mouse cursor in gWidgets RGtk2?) gives good information on the syntax to use.
My problem is that in the list of available cursors (e.g. help("gdk-Cursors")
) includes all sort of weird and wonderful things (boat, clock and coffee mug....) but none of the ordinary shapes such as zoom in, zoom out, text edit...
I guess I could use an external image to define cursor I like (cf. Change mouse cursor of a widget in gWidgetsRGtk2) but really, I find it hard to believe that RGtk does not ship with a set of sane cursor shapes.
Surely I'm missing something, but where can I find cursors of "normal" shape ?
