MouDrawPtr

This call allows a process to notify the mouse device driver that an area previously restricted to the pointer image is now available to the mouse device driver.

MouDrawPtr

(DeviceHandle)

DeviceHandle (HMOU) - input

Mouse device handle from a previous MouOpen.
rc (USHORT) - return
Return code descriptions are:
• NO_ERROR 385
  ERROR_MOUSE_NO_DEVICE
  466
  ERROR_MOU_DETACHED
  501
  ERROR_MOUSE_NO_CONSOLE
  505
  ERROR_MOU_EXTENDED_SG
  Remarks

  The collision area (the pointer image restricted area) is established by MouOpen and by MouRemovePtr. MouDrawPtr nullifies the effect of the MouRemovePtr command. If there was no previous MouDrawPtr command or if a previous MouDrawPtr command has already nullified the collision area, the MouRemovePtr command is effectively a null operation.

  This call is required to begin session pointer image drawing. Immediately after MouOpen is issued, the collision area is defined as the size of the display. A MouDrawPtr is issued to begin pointer drawing after the MouOpen.
