Hello everybody,

I was fighting with the setCursor (Cursor) method for a while, thinking that
it just does nothing at all.
Now I found out that setCursor (Cursor) is executed only when the calling
method ends.
An example:

public void myMethod () {

  myPanel.setCursor (Cursor.getPredefinedCursor(Cursor.WAIT_CURSOR));

  do_something ();

  myPanel.setCursor (Cursor.getPredefinedCursor(Cursor.DEFAULT_CURSOR));

}

If you call myMehtod you think that setCursor (...) is ignored. but if you
don�t set the cursor back to the default you will see that the cursor is set
to the WAIT_CURSOR right after do_something() ends.

Is there a way to make the Cursor change it�s look before do_something()
begins ?

Thanks for your help !

Alex.
