    <p>The most common way of changing a cursor in Flash apps seems to be based on simply <strong>hiding the native OS cursor</strong> and <strong>displaying a graphic</strong> (drawn by the Flash Player) inside the Flash rectangle where the (hidden) cursor would be. This is what <a href="http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/langref/mx/managers/CursorManager.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><code>mx.managers.CursorManager</code></a> does, for example. The reason why I find this approach unacceptable is that Flash Player isn't nearly fast enough at updating the cursor graphic, leading to some very <strong>visible lag</strong> in the cursor movement, which I find to be a pretty fundamental usability problem and annoyance, making the whole app seem slower than it really is.</p> <p>On the other hand, I've noticed that the <strong>CSS <a href="http://www.w3schools.com/CSS/tryit.asp?filename=trycss_cursor" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><code>cursor</code></a> property</strong> implementation in browsers works like it should -- i.e. there's no visible lag in the cursor movement when using it to implement a custom mouse cursor.</p> <p>So my question is: <em>is there any way to use the CSS <code>cursor</code> property (or any other method that doesn't involve lagging, slow cursor movement) to change the cursor on top of a Flash rectangle?</em></p> <p>I've already tried to change the <code>cursor</code> style property for a Flash element (or a <code>Div</code> wrapper around the Flash element) via JavaScript, but didn't seem to get it to work. Has anyone successfully done something like this?</p>
