Hand cursor on buttons

[jflowers45]

What is the 'suggested' way to make the cursor turn into a hand when you mouse over a button?  Modify the onInputOver?

[Rocco]

this is the way for sprites, so it should be similar for buttons?

sprite.inputEnabled = true;sprite.input.useHandCursor = true;

[jflowers45]

worked like a charm. thanks!

My workaround to set cursor on text is to attach a transparent tileSprite on it.

You can take the dimension of the text object and create tileSprite with the same size.

Then You add the tilesprite to the text as its Child.

Now you can inputEnable the tileSprite and apply cursor on it.

 

var backText = _t.make.text(-(popup_width / 2), (popup_height) - 90, SP.lang.backLabel, SP.font.blueSmallFont);
backText.anchor.setTo(0.5, 0);

var backTextclickArea = _t.make.tileSprite(0, 18, 190, 45, 'transparentPixel');
// The size cords could be generated dynamically !!!

	backTextclickArea.anchor.setTo(0.5, 0);
	backTextclickArea.inputEnabled = true;
	backTextclickArea.input.useHandCursor = true;
	backTextclickArea.events.onInputDown.add(_t.goBack, _t);
	backTextclickArea.input.priorityID = 10;

backText.addChild(backTextclickArea);
