Default Cursor Behavior [message #640083]

Hello there,

I have an e4 application made of simple parts in a sash.
The default behavior of the cursor is an arrow everywhere except when resizing the sash (cursor becomes a resizing cursor).

Somewhere in my code I am changing the cursor to the CURSOR_WAIT type, because I am fetching data from the database...
After fetching is done, I would like to restore the normal app cursor behavior. What I am doing now is changing the cursor to CURSOR_ARROW, but that does not give me the normal behavior described above, it just gives me an arrow cursor everywhere I move my mouse...

Thanks for any help!!!

Should you set the cursor back to null?
