Active Area Mouse

Sets the mouse cursor type within the active area.

None: When this option is selected, no specific mouse cursor type is assigned to the active area. The default cursor will be used, which typically appears as an arrow or the standard operating system cursor. This setting is useful when no special cursor indication is needed for the active area.

Arrow: When this option is selected, the mouse cursor is displayed as an arrow within the active area. This is the standard pointer appearance and is used to indicate a normal selection or navigation action. It helps users identify areas where they can interact with standard interface elements like buttons and menus.

Hand: When this option is selected, the mouse cursor is displayed as a hand within the active area. This cursor type is often used to indicate interactive elements such as hyperlinks, buttons, or other elements that respond to clicks. It helps users recognize that the area is interactive and clickable, providing a clear visual cue for interactive elements.
