Hello everyone,

Was wondering if it's possible to change the cursor when hovering over ToolItems inside a ToolBar. I can only setCursor of ToolBar but not of the ToolItem I've created. This would be very useful for Push-Toolitems in order to signalize a possible event to the user.

Thanks,
Chris

I think it is not possible to set the cursor on a ToolItem since ToolItem extends Item, not Control.

What you can do is to use a Composite instead of a ToolBar and to use ActionContributionItem. This class creates a Button when fill(Composite parent) is used. You can access the button via getWidget and set a cursor to it. Alternatively, define the cursor via css for Buttons.

Sebastian
