Just to be sure - do you mean the mouse pointer, or the text cursor?
Sorry, I was not precise : first we need the text cursor. For example,
when we open an empty writer document, see a usable and blinking cursor
would be perfect for us.
After some tries, I think we'll have to implement some methods in
AquaSalFrame ( vcl/aqua/source/window/salframe.cxx ) , like :
AquaSalFrame:SetPointerPos()
This is for mouse pointer.
Ok, noted. Just nothing is implemented yet, and I guess some work is
needed too.
We really have no precise idea, and I ask because advices will save us a
lot of time.
AquaSalFrame:SetCursorPos()
This is for text cursor, and most probably you don't want to change that.
This method is empty, with "implement me" inside :-/
So let's go ...
AquaSalFrame:SetInputContext()
> This is for input methods if I'm not mistaken.
This method is still empty to. And I wonder if some work is needed or
not for that too ..
My current infos are about use (from Apple Carbon API )
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual/
OSXHIGuidelines/XHIGCursors/chapter_15_section_2.html
But it looks like you are interested just in the mouse pointer - then I would
start with AquaSalFrame::SetPointer(), and then continue with
AquaSalFrame::SetPointerPos().
I thik both : first text cursor, second improve the behaviour with
pointer cursor, depending on the context, e.g. using contextual menus, ..etc
SetThemeCursor ( SetCCursor() and GetCcursor are deprecated for 10.4)
ControlSetCursor()
HandleControlSetCursor()
...
Yes, SetThemeCursor()
[http://developer.apple.com/documentation/macos8/HumanInterfaceToolbox/AppManager/ProgWithAppearanceMgr/Appearance.3f.html]
seems to be what you want for the implementation of
AquaSalFrame::SetPointer().
I think so too. Now we have fill the empty fields (means bind it with
vcl thing) :-)
What we need, are infos concerning the logical behind the
implementation :
- do we need to install a Handler ?
- do we need to install specific events ?
- do we need .. anything else ?
Why?
Because (text) cursor usually need both a context and a handler. If I'm
not wrong.
I would just try to map the PointerStyle constants to ThemeCursor
constants.
Ok, so we wil start in this direction, and if nothing works,
progressively complete
Hopefully I'm not too wrong ;-)
I don't think so : this is very difficult to find informations when
nothing does exist, and I'm glad to have some feedback :-)
Thanks again !!
Regards,
Eric
