Custom cursors

TIER 1 — Large screen differentiated

Custom cursors differentiate your app by indicating how and when users can interact with UI elements and content. The system provides custom cursors, such as:

• I-beam for text fields
• Resize handles at resizable layer edges
• Processing spinners

But you can create specialty cursors, such as:

• Crosshairs when hovering over targets in games
• A magnifying glass when hovering over zoomable content
• Tools in drawing or illustration apps
