Sets one of the cursors associated with automated annotations.

Parameters

HANNOBJECT hAutomation

Handle to the annotation automation object.

L_UINT uItem

Value that specifies the cursor to be displayed on various actions. Possible values are:

	ANNOBJECT_BUTTON
	ANNOBJECT_HOTSPOT
	ANNOBJECT_FREEHANDHOTSPOT
	ANNOBJECT_AUDIO
	ANNOBJECT_VIDEO
	ANNOBJECT_PUSHPIN
ANNAUTOCURSOR_MOVE	[4] Displayed in design mode, when an annotation is selected and the cursor is over the selected annotation (but not over the annotation handle).
ANNAUTOCURSOR_SELECT	[5] Displayed in design mode, when hovering over an unselected annotation. The default is the windows predefined cursor IDC_IBEAM.
ANNAUTOCURSOR_TEXT	[6] Displayed in design mode, when entering text into one of the following text annotations:
	ANNOBJECT_TEXT
	ANNOBJECT_TEXTPOINTER
	ANNOBJECT_RTF

	The default is the windows predefined cursor IDC_IBEAM.
ANNAUTOCURSOR_WAIT	[7] Displayed during the wait operation. The default is the hourglass.
ANNAUTOCURSOR_ROTATE_GRIPPER	[8] Displayed when hovering over a gripper rotate handle. The rotate handles are displayed only after calling L_AnnSetOptions.
ANNAUTOCURSOR_ROTATE_CENTER	[9] Displayed when hovering over rotate center handle. The rotate handles are displayed only after calling L_AnnSetOptions (hAutomation, OPTIONS_NEW_ROTATE).

The following cursors are displayed only after calling L_AnnSetOptions (hAutomation, OPTIONS_NEW_CURSORS):

Value	Meaning
ANNAUTOCURSOR_SIZENS	[10] Displayed when hovering over the north most or south most side select handles in a rectangular object. Note that the side select handles are only displayed after calling L_AnnSetOptions(hAutomation, OPTIONS_NEW_SIDE_HANDLES).
ANNAUTOCURSOR_SIZENESW	[11] Displayed when hovering over the North-east or South-west select handles in a rectangular object.
ANNAUTOCURSOR_SIZEWE	[12] Displayed when hovering over the west most or east most side select handles in a rectangular object. Note that the side select handles are only displayed after calling L_AnnSetOptions (hAutomation, OPTIONS_NEW_SIDE_HANDLES).
ANNAUTOCURSOR_SIZENWSE	[13] Displayed when hovering over the North-west or South-east select handles in a rectangular object.
ANNAUTOCURSOR_SELECT_OUTLINE	[14] Displayed when doing a drag type select in automation mode.

The following cursors are displayed when the corresponding tool is active. For example, when the PolyLine tool is active in automation mode, the ANNAUTOCURSOR_TOOL_POLYLINE_CURSOR will be shown.

Value	Meaning
ANNAUTOCURSOR_TOOL_LINE_CURSOR	[15] Displayed when the line tool is active.
ANNAUTOCURSOR_TOOL_RECT_CURSOR	[16] Displayed when the rectangle tool is active.

HCURSOR hCursor

Handle to the cursor that will be displayed.

Returns

Value	Meaning
SUCCESS	The function was successful.
< 1	An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

If hAutomation is NULL, the annotation cursors are changed for all the automation objects that will be created from this point on. It also changes the cursors for the automation objects that have not had their cursors changed (still using defaults).

If hAutomation is not NULL, the hCursor is changed only for the specified automation object. Some programs create a new automation object each time a file is opened. This is especially true for MDI applications. In this case, the hCursor is set only for the current file. If you want this hCursor to be set for all files, you must set the hCursor each time you create a new automation object, or call L_AnnSetAutoCursor with hObject set to NULL.

Internally, a copy is made of hCursor, so the hCursor can be destroyed after calling this fuction.

To retrieve a copy of an annotation cursor, call L_AnnGetAutoCursor.
