Its kind of confusing what you are doing. If you want to set the cursor of
in view's OnSetCursor. OnSetCursor is called automatically whenever there is
Thanks, Ajay. My description was somewhat misleading. OnNextActivity
doesn't actually call SetCursor, but it makes a call that creates the
activity, which then uses SetCursor.
I followed your advice:
BOOL CMainFrame::OnSetCursor(CWnd* pWnd, UINT nHitTest, UINT message)
{
// TODO: Add your message handler code here and/or call default
CRoom101View* pView = (CRoom101View*)GetActiveView();
CActivity* act = pView->m_pAct;
pView->SetCursorTo(act->GetCursor() );
::Beep(500,50);
return CFrameWnd::OnSetCursor(pWnd, nHitTest, message);
}
But OnSetCursor is not being triggered when I move the mouse over the
non-client area, unless I leave the window and then return. I would
appreciate further comment.

Try setting the cursor in OnSetCursor instead of in OnNextActivity. In
OnNextActivity, put a flag which will know that the cursor needs to be
changed.

I have a dialog that opens with dlg.DoModal(). I close it by clicking on
one of two buttons, both of which do essentially the same thing:
CMainFrame* main = (CMainFrame*)AfxGetMainWnd();
CRoom101View* pView = (CRoom101View*) main->GetActiveView();
// now go to the lesson button screen
pView->PostMessage(WM_NEXTACTIVITY, 888);
CDialog::OnCancel();
That view::OnNextActivity call results in a call to SetCursor:
::SetCursor(AfxGetApp()->LoadCursor(m_uCurrentCursor) );
After the dialog closes, I get the custom cursor I'm expecting over my
view, but apparently due to the PostMessage, the cursor will not revert
to the standard Windows cursor when I move it over the non-client area,
i.e. title bar, until I click on the window. What do I need to do?
