• void hide(): Hides the cursor from view.

• void reveal(): Reveals the hidden cursor.

• void disable(): Disable the cursor.

• void enable(): Enable the cursor.

• void use(const std::shared_ptr<kernel::Cursor>& cursor): Use the specified cursor.

Example Usage

#include <hgui/header/CursorManager.h>

{ // Example Usage of CursorManager
    std::shared_ptr<hgui::kernel::Image> customCursor = /* initialize custom cursor image */;
    hgui::point clickPosition(10, 10);

    // Create a custom cursor
    std::shared_ptr<hgui::kernel::Cursor> customCursor = hgui::CursorManager::create(customCursor, clickPosition);

    hgui::CursorManager::use(customCursor);
} // Here the custom cursor is destroyed

{ // Create a predefined cursor
    std::shared_ptr<hgui::kernel::Cursor> predefinedCursor = hgui::CursorManager::create(cursors::HAND);

    hgui::CursorManager::hide();
    // (Change cursor behavior here)
   hgui::CursorManager::reveal();
} // Here the predefined cursor is destroyed

Note: In the "Example Usage" section, we demonstrate how to create custom and predefined cursors with the CursorManager class in DYNAMIC mode.
