SDL_CreateCursor(3)						 SDL API Reference					       SDL_CreateCursor(3)

NAME

       SDL_CreateCursor - Creates a new mouse cursor.

SYNOPSIS

       #include "SDL.h"

       SDL_Cursor *SDL_CreateCursor(Uint8 *data, Uint8 *mask, int w, int h, int hot_x, int hot_y);

DESCRIPTION

       Create a cursor using the specified data and mask (in MSB format). The cursor width must be a multiple of 8 bits.

       The cursor is created in black and white according to the following:

       Data / Mask	   Resulting pixel on screen

       0 / 1		   White

       1 / 1		   Black

       0 / 0		   Transparent

       1 / 0		   Inverted color if possible, black if not.

       Cursors created with this function must be freed with SDL_FreeCursor.
