@PB,
What for Linux and MAC?
I want it native in PB for all! supported OS (Not Windows only).

Almost any "commonly used" command should be native all the 3 platforms.
I assume it's a PB4 feature ;)

Hello @Fred,

Will it be part of the PB4.0?
I belive it is important for cross platform developing

SetMousePointerImage() or SetMousePointerIcon() instead SetMousePointer() please. Just to be explicit and to avoid confusion.

or even SetMousePointerState(#PB_PointerBusy | #PB_PointerNormal | #PB_PointerResize)

Any method would be nice, though...
