Hi,

I just noticed that in SynEdit (Lazarus IDE Editor window), if I do
the hyperlink thing with the Control+<mouse hover>, it doesn't show
the correct cursor (pointer) compared to when I use a web browser like
Firefox.

In Firefox if I move over a link I get the pointing hand cursor (hand
with index finger out). But in Lazarus I don't see that, I see the
hand cursor with all fingers out (I think that is equivalent to the
"grap" cursor).

Now I searched the SynEdit code and found that it does indeed use the
crHandPoint cursor. So I created a new project with one form. Dropped
a button on it, and started changing the Cursor property for that
button. And indeed if I set Cursor = crHandPoint, I get the "grap"
cursor instead of the index finger out (pointing hand).

Anybody know why this is? Why is Firefox using the correct cursor, but
Lazarus doesn't?
I'm using latest trunk Lazarus with GTK2 widgetset. Ubuntu is 8.04.2
and 9.04 and both with the standard Gnome desktop and theme.

PS:
I tried to take screenshots of the cursor, but with 8.04.2 I don't
have the option to include the cursor in screenshots.
