Dave's trying some stuff right now I think, we've added a couple of lines of code to the engine to make this easier,

Nothing, the "hand" cursor just stays there. It does not change to the arrow. From what Dave Burnett has already explained to me, this is because I've set something like this in the script -> "lbl1.enabled = false;" which disables the object once it is dropped on a target area. This was done because I need the objects to stay on the target areas once dropped, until the user presses the submit button which checks whether the objects match the target areas. If the user drops the correct objects to the correct target areas feedback appears and the interaction is finished, if not -the objects are moved to their original positions and can be dragged again. This was the only way that I could think off to get this functionality.

When you roll off the dropped item, and move the mouse to the button, what happens to the cursor?

Subject: [Xerte] Disabling the Hand Cursor

I've created an interaction with multiple drag and drop objects and target areas as well as a quiz. It looks and works okay when the interaction loads up (the hand cursor appears only when hovered over the draggable items and disappears when not hovered), but then something breaks. For some reason when I drop the final object to a target area and press the submit button(to check if the objects were dropped to the correct areas) the hand cursor just stays there permanently. Is there a way to either disable the hand cursor globally or disable it when the submit button is pressed?
