Appendix
C:
Changing the Pointer
You can use
the
Preferences tool
to
modify the Pointer.
The
following
instructions tell you how.
Opening Preferences
You
can
find
the
Preferences tool
on
the
Workbench
disk.
To
open
Preferences, select its icon,
then
choose
Open
from the
Workbench
menu.
To
learn
more
about
Preferences, see
Chapter
7.
The Pointer Editing Window
When
the
Preferences
screen
appears, select
the
Edit Pointer Gadget
near
the lower right-hand
corner
of the
screen.
In a
moment,
a window appears.
In this
window-the
Pointer
Editing
Window-a
magnified image of
the
Pointer appears at
the
upper
left. It
is
this magnified image
that
you modify
to change the Pointer.
To
the
right of the magnified view
are
copies of the
Pointer
that
appear
against
each
of the four
Workbench
colors;
these
copies
let you judge how the Pointer will
look
against the colors
on
the
Workbench.
Changing the Colors
The
colors you use to draw
the
Pointer
appear
near
the
bottom
of
the
window.
These
colors
can
be
different from those
used
for
the
Workbench.
You
can
modify the
three
colors to
the
left in
the
same
way
you modify the
Workbench
colors: by changing the
R,
G,
and
B values for
each.
The
rightmost
"color"
is not a color at all: any parts of the Pointer you draw
with it
are
transparent.
When
you move the Pointer, colors on the
Workbench
behind
any
transparent
parts of the Pointer show through.
