Hi,
I have a SLOT that is called by an action. In this SLOT I call "setCursor(Qt::WaitCursor)".
The problem is that the cursor shows the WatiCursor only if the mouse is over the icon of the action, so if I move it to the centralWidget it shows the ArrowCursor, but if I move it again over the action it shows the WaitCursor again.
I want the WaitCursor on all my application.
Thanks,

Hi,
Did you set the cursor for your centerWidget?
Different cursors can be set to different widgets, so maybe you haven't set the cursor for your centralWidget?
Just an idea.

Hi,
I want the cursor to all the application, so maybe I need to get the MainWindow pointer.
Thanks,

QApplication::setOverrideCursor might help you :)

Hi,
I'm not able to make it work.
I've tryied:
QApplication::setOverrideCursor(Qt::ArrowCursor);
QApplication::changeOverrideCursor(Qt::ArrowCursor );
setCursor(Qt::ArrowCursor);
Thanks,

Hi,
This is the slot that is called when the action is triggered
void MYmainWindow::mySlot()
{
setCursor(Qt::WaitCursor);
//Also tryied:
//QApplication::setOverrideCursor(Qt::WaitCursor);
}

I guess, Line 5 should be
QApplication::setOverrideCursor(QCursor(Qt::WaitCu rsor));
u didnt make an object of the cursor !!

Hi,
Your code and mine does the same.
It set's the WaitCursor just a moment and then returns to ArrowCursor.
Mmmm, the slot, changes the cursor and then calls a object method that starts a thread. If I disable the call to this method, the WaitCursor is correctly showed. So, when "QThread:start()" is called, the aplication restores it's original cursor?
