I was thinking how can i add a wait cursor to my listview box.

Thank you in advance.
Could you monitor the Mouse's position (for the top left) in the LV and if the LV is loading display the wait cursor?
Thank you for the reply Bruce Fox.
But i was thinking of have a button that will start the cursor.
For example the user clicks start the wait cursor appears at the top left of the listview Box.
And when the task is finished the wait cursor disappears.
Thank you in advance.
So do you want to 'fix' the position of the wait cursor for that period?
Yes, but i do want the user to interact with the application when that wait cursor appears.
Thank you in advance.
Note: I posted this as you posted your previous post.
Instead of (potentially) fixing the cursor, could I suggest an over-layed 'Loading' GIF in the middle of the LV.
The GIF would be displayed for the period, and then removed once loaded, this method is know to most users, and would be ascetically pleasing too :)
Well, post #6 is probably the way to go....Quote:

Here is a great place to start.
Once you created it, load it into a PictureBox, and show hide as required.
A few examples (attached).
Thanks Bruce Fox.
I see how this works :wave:
No problem. I'm sure you will find it a better solution. :)
Good luck with your project.
