Vision2: EV_CURSOR vs. EV_POINTER_STYLE

[Daniel Furrer]

I was looking at EV_CURSOR and EV_POINTER_STYLE and it made me wonder...
Can you explain to me why the two are needed? To me it looks like the same
thing.
Why not decide for one and throw the other one away? (I found something
about remote desktop on the web but couldn't make sense of it). Can we mark
one as obsolete? Also there should be a description in the class header.

Best regards,
Daniel

Hi, Daniel,

EV_POINTER_STYLE is the one works better than EV_CURSOR on Windows platforms. It support high-depth color cursor (such as, when using remote desktop), but EV_CURSOR can't. For Unix platforms, I think they are almost the same.

I think EV_CURSOR is obsolete. The comments were added in revision#79517.

Thanks for your post.
