Do you understand what a question is?
No one here is going to code for you.
We are here to help each other with questions if you have something you are not clear about, or have a specific problem.
But not for "do my job for me".

If you don't want to draw the cursor yourself (which would be easiest) then you'll need to use the native API.

Since you are using Windows then WinAPI, of course. Qt has nothing to do with this.
