Thanks Daniel.

I did add the mousemode to my components list.

I've also attempted to set cursorIDs in the properties file of the default build of OpenMap 5.0, just to rule out anything weird I've done in my software, and it doesn't work there either. Are you using 5.0, or an earlier/later one?

For the record I'm also on Sun JRE 6 r23, Win XP 32-bit SP3.

Ian

 Hi,
Using the following lines in the properties-file worked for me:
openmap.components=DistanceMouseMode
DistanceMouseMode.class=com.bbn.openmap.event.DistanceMouseMode
DistanceMouseMode.cursorID=CROSSHAIR_CURSOR
Did you add the mousemode to the components?
In the DistanceMouseMode.java-file i see the following:
// if you really want to change the cursor shape // setModeCursor(cursor.getPredefinedCursor(cursor.CROSSHAIR_CURSOR));
But that should be the same as you did. Perhaps someone else knows what's going wrong here...
Hope I could help.

Subject: [OpenMap Users] MouseMode Support for cursorID Property
Hi,
It looks from the source of AbstractMouseMode that MouseModes support a cursorID property that sets the cursor to use when that MouseMode is active.  It looks for one of the static defined cursors in java.awt.Cursor, e.g. CROSSHAIR_CURSOR.
However, I can't get it to work in any MouseMode.  I've tried loading it as a property, e.g.
    distanceMouseMode.cursorID=HAND_CURSOR
...and I've tried extending the class and setting the cursor programatically, e.g.
    public class DistanceMouseMode2 extends DistanceMouseMode
    {
      public DistanceMouseMode2()
      {
        super();
        setModeCursor(new Cursor(Cursor.CROSSHAIR_CURSOR));
      }
    }
...but the cursor remains the normal pointer.
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks,
Ian
