How to Change the Mouse Cursor for a GridControl
The simplest way is to derive the grid and override OnSetCursor. You can add additional checks to narrow down where to set the cursor.
//GridDataBoundGrid.
public class MyGridControl : GridControl
{
protected override void OnSetCursor(ref Message m)
{
base.OnSetCursor(ref m);
//Always set the cursor to a cross.
Cursor.Current = Cursors.Cross;
//or
//Put special cursor over cell 2,2.
//Point pt = this.PointToClient(Control.MousePosition);
//int row, col;
//if(this.PointToRowCol(pt, out row, out col, -1)
// && row == 2 && col == 2)
// {
// Cursor.Current = Cursors.Cross;
// }
}
}
Public Class MyGridControl
Inherits GridControl 'GridDataBoundGrid
Protected Overrides Sub OnSetCursor(ByRef m As Message)
MyBase.OnSetCursor(m)
'Always set the cursor to a cross.
Cursor.Current = Cursors.Cross
'OR
'Put special cursor over cell 2,2.
'Point pt = this.PointToClient(Control.MousePosition);
'int row, col;
'If Me.PointToRowCol(pt, row, col, -1) AndAlso row = 2 AndAlso col = 2 Then
'Cursor.Current = Cursors.Cross;
