Mouse Pointer

Post by djrikki »

Under AmigaOS the maximum pointer seems to 128x128 or less... and it looks 'as loaded' what is the precise max size? Under MacOS it appears to have loaded the pointer in exactly at 256x256 - hahaha which is far too big so I need to reduce the brushes in question.

So what is the maximum pointer size under AmigaOS?

No idea, I guess it is using hardware sprites so it is dependent on the gfx driver. You shouldn't use such large pointers anyway :)

You can normally get around the pointer problem by Hiding the pointer and drawing some layer at the mouse x,y place. Thats how I did once.
