Here’s the updated version of the FPP:Cursors plugin it incorporates Scott Witte’s Smooth functionality and Denis Chumakov’s Hotspots Mouse over detection. As always, every single parameter is configurable. Read more after the break.

Main Features:

• Use the internal cursors or define your own custom cursor images
• Define the normal, pressed and drag cursor images using external images
• Reverts to the internal cursor if a external cursor image isn’t found
• Example cursor images included in the download
• Use custom cursor when mouse is not pressed (not recommended for heavier tours)
• Use system cursor when mouse is not pressed (recommended for heavier tours)
• Uses normal (hand) cursor when over hotspots or other plugins
• Cursor snap to 45ª angles or rotates freely when dragging your panorama
• Define minimum move distance to activate drag cursor

How to use:

First add it like any FPP plugin:

layer_80  = fppcursor.swf

Then add a parameters block like this:

<FPPCursor>
    smooth=true
    externalCursors=false
    iconNormal=cursors/normal.png
    iconMove=cursors/move.png
    iconPress=cursors/press.png
    minMovement=2
</FPPCursor>

So the parameters are:

smooth=[TRUE|FALSE]

whether or not to use a custom cursor when the cursor is over the panorama and not over a hotspot or plugin. (default is true)

externalCursors=[TRUE|FALSE]

Use external cursor images, activates the next 3 parameters. (default is false)

iconNormal=[URL]

The URL of the image for the cursor when the mouse isn’t pressed

iconMove=[URL]

The URL of the image for the cursor when the mouse is pressed and the mouse is moving (dragging)

iconPress=[URL]

The URL of the image for the cursor when the mouse is pressed but isn’t moving

snapAngle=[TRUE|FALSE]

If the cursor “snaps” to 45º angles (true) or rotates freely (false). (default is true)

minMovement=[DISTANCE IN PIXELS]

The distance in pixels to move the cursor after pressing the mouse, to be considered a drag. (default is 2)

pretty self explanatory, but if you have any questions, just ask
