Detailed Description

Manipulate Cursors.

The MCursor class implements a cursor class, and is used to pass all cursor arguments to Maya API methods.

The cursor image and mask are stored in xbm format to the constructor along with the cursor dimensions and the cursor hotspot.

Examples:
lassoTool/lassoTool.cpp.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

MCursor ( short  width,
short  height,
short  hotSpotX,
short  hotSpotY,
unsigned char *  bits,
unsigned char *  mask 
)

Class constructor.

Create a new instance of an MCursor and initialize it with the given values.

Parameters
[in]widththe width of the cursor
[in]heightthe height of the cursor
[in]hotSpotXthe x position of the hot spot (left is 1)
[in]hotSpotYthe y position of the hot spot (top is 1)
[in]bitsthe cursor bitmap in xbm format
[in]maskthe cursor mask in xbm format
MCursor ( const MCursor other)

Copy constructor.

Create a new MCursor instance and initialize it with the given cursor.

Parameters
[in]otherthe MCursor to copy from.

Member Function Documentation

MCursor & operator= ( const MCursor other)

Assignment operator.

Allows assignment between MCursor instances.

Parameters
[in]otherthe MCursor to copy from.
bool operator== ( const MCursor other) const

Equality operator.

Allows 2 MCursors to be compared to see if they are identical.

Parameters
[in]otherthe MCursor object to be compared with.
Returns
  • true if the objects are same.
  • false if the objects are different.
bool operator!= ( const MCursor other) const

Inequality operator.

Allows 2 MCursors to be compared to see if they are not the same.

Parameters
[in]otherthe MCursor object to be compared with.
Returns
  • true if the objects are different.
  • false if the objects are same.
