Yes, that is the intention. However, it is up to the designer of the desktop environment to create whatever graphics they like for a named cursor. That's why creating your own pointer should pretty much guarantee the right visual. In Windows95 for example, the now so common hand was originally an ugly Up Arrow. > BTW it'd be nice to have an standard FL_CURSOR_xxx for > the "no go" X shape, like XC_X_cursor aka (Fl_Cursor)1. Sure. Please file an STR. OI don't know when I will get to implementing this though.
