The dbicSlide control uses the default cursor of the form in which it is hosted as its Thumb cursor. To change the Thumb cursor the control contains two different methods.
The first way to change the Thumb cursor is to change the ThumbPointer property to any other value than “Default”. This will cause the default cursor to be replaced with one of the framework cursors as defined in the ThumbPointer property.
The second way to change the Thumb cursor is to set the ThumbPointer property to “Custom” and supply a custom image to the ThumbCursor property. NOTE: The following limitations apply to custom cursors …
· The image should be set to a 32x32 pixel image. If the image is not 32x32 the control will stretch it to 32x32.
· The ThumbCursor property is an Image type and as such it will not standard cursor objects. As a result, the Origin* for the cursor cannot be set. When using custom images for the ThumbCursor, the Origin* will be set at its center. Accordingly any images used as custom cursors should be set up with the Origin in the center of the control.
*NOTE: The origin or hot spot of an icon is the pixel that represents the point of the icon.
