Setting the type of cursor on a ToolStripStatusLabel object

I have a StatusStrip object at the bottom of my form with a ToolStripStatusLabel object added to it. I want to change the type of mouse cursor that is displayed when one hovers over it.

How can I achieve this?

Solution

  • The ToolStripStatusLabel object does not have a Cursor property. In order to change the displayed cursor you must set the StatusStrip.Cursor property at run-time.

    Use the label's MouseEnter and MouseLeave event to change the StatusStrip.Cursor property.
