SetCursor plugin

You'll find that the custom cursors sections crash however. I can't find out why its crashing. LoadImage loads the file fine (apparently), but SetCursor crashes. If anybody can fix this please let me know

Well SetClassLongPtr works (cursor changes)... for a few seconds and then it crashes lol

Seems to work fine when called with the System plugin though so I guess it's a problem caused when being called from a plugin.

Made script header using System plugin instead:

code:
char szParam[MAX_PATH];

Also

code:
GetCursorPos(&cur);

SetCursorPos(cur.x, cur.y);

And IDC_* nsh header with LoadCursor(NULL, MAKEINTRESOURCE(my_atoi(szParam))); may be simpler then strings. Worked fine in my test including ani cursor.

This is code. Sorry, functions renaming is my hobby

Hmm thanks

It still didn't work if the file path name was less than 32 characters though (would cause a crash).

Great work man, that's the third plugin this month

.

Both with full path/name (including less then 32 chars) and SetOutPath + file name. I also added quotas to "$EXEDIR". Short sample attached.

BTW it is possible to combine repeating code of 2 cursor functions both in my /numeric/ and your /string/ cursor definition (as last else

). And last hidden section in group with default cursor setting makes sample shorter

Just making it easier for the NSIS programmer. No need for any defines to exist in their script. Also if I were to set the cursor back to the NORMAL cursor in a hidden section at the end, programmers may miss it when looking through the example.

I fixed the crashing, which wasn't actually being caused by the szParam being 32 characters. Had cursor defined globally and again in the File function (should have removed it like I did with the others!)
