## B.6 Accessing Windows Cursors

The Win32 version of XPCE supports all the X11 cursors. It also supports the definition of cursors from images. Note that such cursors are generally limited to 32 × 32 pixels on Windows (formally there is no limit in X11, but many (colour) servers exhibit strange behaviour when given cursors larger than this size). The window cursor names are in table 14. Use the File/Demo/Cursors entry from the PCE Manual to inspect all available cursors.

`win_arrow` | Default Windows arrow
`win_ibeam` | Like xterm
`win_wait` | hour-class (good replacement of `watch')
`win_cross` | like crosshair
`win_uparrow` | long up arrow (no good X11 replacement)
`win_size` | A bit like `fleur'
`win_icon` | (see icon and icon_cross)
`win_sizenwse` | NorthWest - SouthEast arrow (no X11 replacement)
`win_sizenesw` | NorthEast - SouthWest arrow
`win_sizewe` | West - East arrow
`win_sizens` | North - South arrow
`win_sizeall` | as win_size
`win_no` | Stop-sign
`win_appstarting` | Arrow with hour-class

Table 14 : Windows cursor name mapping

The distributed `Defaults` file assigns `win_arrow` as the default cursor under Windows. `win_ibeam` is the default editor cursor and `win_wait` is the default wait cursor.
