Are you talking about changing the mouse_pointer_icon when dragging something with your mouse on the screen?

Yea.. I am currently using a icon I made to symbolize dragging along with the icon of what I am dragging. But I wanted to use a speacial mouse with icon of the item when dragging. That is if they have a speacial mouse dragging icon.

atom/MouseDrag()
usr.client.mouse_pointer_icon='blah.dmi'// usr.client.mouse_pointer_icon=src.icon
//When you start holding down your mouse and dragging on an atom the mouse pointer icon will change.
atom/MouseUp()
usr.client.mouse_pointer_icon=MOUSE_ARROW_POINTER
//When you lift the left mouse button up the mouse pointer icon returns to it's default appearance.
