Make a custom cursor appear when the user moves the mouse over some text in a Java Swing JDialog
At first set the label on which you want the custom cursor to be visible on hover:
JLabel label = new JLabel("Demo text! Hand cursor is visible on hover...");
Now, set cursor to be visible as Hand Cursor instead of the default Cursor:
label.setCursor(Cursor.getPredefinedCursor(Cursor.HAND_CURSOR));
The following is an example to make a custom cursor appear when the user moves the mouse over some text:
Example
import java.awt.Cursor; import javax.swing.JDialog; import javax.swing.JFrame; import javax.swing.JLabel; import javax.swing.JOptionPane; public class SwingDemo extends JFrame { private void ShowDialog() { JLabel label = new JLabel("Demo text! Hand cursor is visible on hover..."); label.setCursor(Cursor.getPredefinedCursor(Cursor.HAND_CURSOR)); JOptionPane pane = new JOptionPane(label); pane.setOptions(new Object[] { "Close" }); JDialog dialog = pane.createDialog(this, "Info"); dialog.setVisible(true); } public static void main(String[] args) { SwingDemo demo = new SwingDemo(); demo.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); demo.setSize(600, 450); demo.setVisible(true); demo.ShowDialog(); } }
The output is as follows. When you will keep cursor under the Dialog text “Demo text! Hand cursor is visible on hover...”, then the cursor will convert to Hand Cursor:
