wxCURSOR_SIZE form difference on Linux/Windows

Do you have a typical platform dependent issue you're battling with ? Ask it here. Make sure you mention your platform, compiler, and wxWidgets version.

wxCURSOR_SIZE form difference on Linux/Windows

Post by rudolfninja »

Hi everyone,
The general question if there somewhere in the documentation the pictures of how cursors should looks like?
Why I'm asking. I've got the following code to initialize cursors:

Code: Select all

        static const wxCursor wxCursorArrow = wxCursor(wxCURSOR_ARROW);
        static const wxCursor cursorSizeNWSE = wxCursor(wxCURSOR_SIZENWSE);
        static const wxCursor cursorSizeNESW = wxCursor(wxCURSOR_SIZENESW);
        static const wxCursor cursorSizeNS = wxCursor(wxCURSOR_SIZENS);
        static const wxCursor cursorSizeWE = wxCursor(wxCURSOR_SIZEWE);
Depending on mouse position I set specific cursor. However the form of cursors (for example wxCURSOR_SIZENESW) differs:
Linux (Gnome):

Windows:

Is it possible to make Linux-version cursor looks like the windows one?
Thanks.

Hi,
I think the Windows has a faulty cursor and Linux is correct here.

Also I vaguely remember there was an old ticket on trac about that. Unfortunately I don't remember the details.

Check the trac.wxwidgets.org.

Thank you.
