Change Cursor Utility
The Change Cursor utility in the Notebook Group lets you
design or edit the shape and appearance of the following
seven cursors used by Windows:
❑The arrow is the primary pointer when using a
pointing device
❑The hourglass signals that Windows is saving work,
loading a program, or otherwise performing work that
cannot be interrupted
❑The I-beam, called a selection cursor, indicates where
your typing or drawing will appear. Usually the
I-beam can be moved using your pointing device or
mouse
❑The four double-arrow cursors are used by Windows to
denote box sizing. The cursors east-west, north-south,
northeast-southwest, and northwest-southeast are
named for the directions to which they point.
Note: Custom cursors designed specifically for the
TravelMate 4000M Series automatically load when
Windows loads. Although these cursors were designed for
visibility on the LCD, you can use the default cursors
furnished by Windows instead.
