View Full Version : Diamond vs. Traditional Cursor

Does anyone know how Windows 7 decides which cursor to use?

I really really like the diamond and ring cursors, and ripple effects on a tap, but I have no use for the press-and-hold for right click feature (I have a multitude of styluses and every single one has a right click button) and it actively interferes with some programs that expect a click-and-hold to do something else.

Sadly, at least on my M1400, the minute I turn off press-and-hold in the Pen and Touch options, it reverts to the normal cursor and sometimes doesn't go back even after I've turned the feature back on. Is there a way to force the diamond cursor elsewhere? Or disable that feature in another way?

Hmmm... I'll have to check...
Cause I have a resistive touch screen that Win Vista doesn't see as touch input, so I never get the "diamond" cursor or the ability to click-and-hold.....
