# BusyCursor

`BusyCursor` Option bool,

This command controls the cursor during the execution of certain commands. Option can be DynamicMenu, ModuleSynchronous, Read, Wait or *. An option must be followed by a boolean argument bool. You can use commas to separate individual options. If you set an option to "True", then when the corresponding command is run, fvwm displays the cursor of the context of the command. "False" forces to not display the cursor. The default is:

    BusyCursor DynamicMenu False, ModuleSynchronous False, \
      Read False, Wait False

The option refers to all available options.

The option controls the command.

The option affects the and options of the command. If this option is set to "False", then the busy cursor is not displayed during a dynamic menu command even if this command is a or command and the Read option is set to "True".

The option affects the command. If this option is set to "False", then the busy cursor is not displayed while fvwm waits for a module started by to complete its startup.

The option affects only the root cursor. During a wait pause the root cursor is replaced by the busy cursor and fvwm is still fully functional (you can escape from the pause, see the command). If you want to use this option and if you do not use the default root cursor, you must set your root cursor with the command.
