Setting mouse cursor in pyglet

I'm trying to set the mouse cursor in a pyglet application. According to the pyglet documentation, this is how I should go about this:

import pyglet

window = pyglet.window.Window()

cursor = window.get_system_mouse_cursor(win.CURSOR_HELP)
window.set_mouse_cursor(cursor)

pyglet.app.run()

However, this gives me the following error:

cursor = window.get_system_mouse_cursor(win.CURSOR_HELP)
NameError: name 'win' is not defined

How can I do this without using my own cursor image files? I'm on linux if that helps.

Solution

  • The CURSOR_HELP attribute is a member of your window class.

    Change 

    win.CURSOR_HELP

    to

    window.CURSOR_HELP
