  1. How can I have two different GRAB and MOVE cursors?


    I have been customising my cursors for a while and noticed that there is no option for a GRAB cursor in the Mouse Porperties --> Pointers menu.I have seen that kind of cursors in Acrobat where the page is movable and you are hovering over it is a open hand/palm and when you click and drag it becomes a curled up hand/fist. Is there any way that this could be implemented systemwide?Images are taken with my phone because I couldn't figure out taking a screenshot with cursor included.These are cursers you get in Adobe Acrobat. These are not windows cursors

    :)

  2. How to change "Grab" cursor in Windows 10?

    Unfortunately, it appears that the "grab" mouse icon has been removed from Windows 10. As of the latest version of Windows 10, this icon is no longer available for customization.

    The option to customize the mouse cursor has been simplified, and now it only allows you to select different predefined cursor schemes. It is no longer possible to customize the icon individually, like the "grab" icon.

    I apologize for any confusion or inconvenience this may cause.

    2. In the left sidebar, click on "Themes."

    3. Click on "Mouse cursor."

    4. Double-click on the cursor you wish to change.

    5. Navigate to the folder where you extracted the custom cursor set.

    6. Select the appropriate cursor file for the "Grab" cursor and click "Open."

    If you don't find the specific cursor style you're looking for, you may need to download custom cursor themes from third-party websites and follow their installation instructions to change the cursor.

    How can I change the "grab" cursor in Windows 11?

    I want to change the grab cursor, not the hand one. The hand is when you're hovering over a link. I want to change the one when you're dragging (still a hand, but different). I've tried the mouse properties in the Control Panel, but I can't change the grabbing hand.
