FAQ
What built-in CSS cursors are available?
Common values like pointer, move, grab, crosshair, zoom-in, not-allowed, and resize arrows - the standard set defined by the CSS cursor property.
Can I preview a custom cursor image?
Yes - upload a PNG, ICO, or GIF and it will be applied as a custom cursor over the preview box, so you can see exactly how it looks before adding it to your site.
Why might a custom cursor not display exactly as expected in production?
Browser support and hotspot positioning for custom cursor images can vary - always test the final CSS across your target browsers.
How do I use the generated CSS?
Copy the cursor declaration and add it to the CSS rule for the element you want the custom pointer to apply to.
