Discussion
The {CURSOR} command allows you to specify a bitmap to use for the cursor when the mouse is over a control. Applies to controls for which a flyover format string has been defined. To turn on a custom cursor insert the command {cursor= Cursor_Image } in the Xdialog before the controls for which the command will apply. To turn off the custom cursor, use the command {cursor=}.
