Property Value
Type: System.Windows.Forms.Cursor
A Cursor that represents the cursor to display when the mouse pointer is over the ShapeContainer.
Remarks
Assign a Cursor to the Cursor property of a ShapeContainer to change the cursor that is displayed when the mouse pointer is over the ShapeContainer.
The Cursor property is an ambient property. An ambient property is a property that, if it is not set, is retrieved from the parent control or form. For example, a ShapeContainer will have the same Cursor as its parent Form by default.
Examples
The following example displays a hand cursor when the mouse passes over a ShapeContainer but not when it passes over a RectangleShape that is contained by the ShapeContainer. This code requires that you have a Form with a RectangleShape control on it.
Private Sub Form1_Load() Handles MyBase.Load
' Display the hand cursor when mouse is over the ShapeContainer.
ShapeContainer1.Cursor = Cursors.Hand
' Display the default cursor when mouse is over the RectangleShape.
RectangleShape1.Cursor = Cursors.Default
End Sub
private void form1_Load(System.Object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
// Display the hand cursor when mouse is over the ShapeContainer.
shapeContainer1.Cursor = Cursors.Hand;
// Display the default cursor when mouse is over the RectangleShape.
rectangleShape1.Cursor = Cursors.Default;
}
