LiveCode Forums.

Dear forum,

I have an animated GIF image that I would like to use as a mouse cursor. I tried setting the cursor to the GIF image and although it does change the cursor to the GIF image, it does not animate.

Can the cursor be animated in LiveCode?

I know i can use a timed handler and multiple images to set the cursor to the individual frames. I just wonder if there's an easier way.

Hi Gerrie,
Not sure that is easier in your context but you may use a .gif image that follow the cursor.

You could also use a small graphic object (as a frame) and a series of
images as a backGroundPattern.
