Change Cursor Over Zoom Slider

JoshObrecht — Fri, 16 Apr 2010 16:50:00 GMT

I am trying to change the cursor when it goes over the zoom slider. Is this possible or is the zoom slider directly a part of the map and has to use the cursor associated with the map?

Thanks.

Did u?

Guys,

This is not to hard to do but you will have to extend the navigation class to do it.

add this code as a mxml component called MyNavigation.as. It has to be in a com/esri/ags/samples folder.

package com.esri.ags.samples
{
    import com.esri.ags.controls.Navigation;
    
    import flash.events.Event;
    import flash.events.MouseEvent;
    import mx.managers.CursorManager;

    public class MyNavigation extends Navigation
    {
     [Embed(source="assets/images/cursors/draw_cursor.png")]
  private var lineCursor:Class;
   
        public function MyNavigation()
        {
            navigationSliderClass = MyNavigationSlider;
        }
        
        override protected function initializationComplete():void
        {
         this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, setCur);
         this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, remCur);
        }
        
        private function setCur(evt:Event):void
        {
         CursorManager.setCursor(lineCursor,1);
        }
        
        private function remCur(evt:Event):void
        {
         CursorManager.removeCursor(CursorManager.currentCursorID);
        }
    }
}

Then where your map component is make it look like this.

<esri:Map id="map" navigationClass="com.esri.ags.samples.MyNavigation">
