Hi,

 

Please suggest, how to see Hand curser instead of mouse arrow pointer, while I hover on an image, the image should work as an icon. (exactly like the hand cursor appears on Icons, when we hover-over it)

Regards,
Nandan

    Weird find but totally works! I have a logo image inside my header component and I wanted it to serve as a "Home button". I couldn't use the original solution here because the image is inside of containers to achieve responsive design, so adding a button will not overlap the image (unless it's possible and I just don't know how). However, setting tab index to 0 on the image gave me the hand pointer on hover as desired. Thank you!

    The answer is:
    Change the 'tab index' field of the image from '-1' to '0'.
    Worked for me.

    Hi @Anonymous ,

    Do you want to see Hand cursor instead of Mouse arrow when hovering over the image?

     

    Currently, within PowerApps, if you want to see Hand cursor instead of Mouse arrow when hovering over the image, I afraid that there is no way to achieve your needs.

     

    If your image source is a URL Link (can access without authentication), I think the Html Text control could achieve your needs. Please take a try with the following workaround:

    8.JPG

    Set the Html Text property of the Html Text control to following:

    "<img src='" & "https://c.pxhere.com/photos/f2/a8/squirrel_furry_animal_fluffy_brown_outdoor_small_curious-569161.jpg!d" & "' height='400' width='400' style='cursor:pointer' />"

    Note: The cursor attribute in the <img> tag is used to specify the cursor style.

     

    If the source image is not an URL Link, I agree with @KrishnaV 's thought almost. You could consider add a Button control over the image control, make the button over the image control properly. Clear the Text value within the Text property of the Button.

    Set the Fill property and HoverFill property of the Button to following:

    RGBA(0, 0, 0, 0)

     

    Best regards,

    Hi @Anonymous ,

     

    As @Drrickryp advised it is hardcoded with an arrow. However, we always have workarounds for every problem 😊. Here is the solution to your issue.

    Here is the working model of that.

    Image as button.gif

    Coming to implementation part:
    Step1: Insert a picture as you wish.
    Step2: Add a button on top of that and make it transparent and remove the below list of properties
    HTML as Button1.png

    Remove the color for pressed, Disabled and Hover color fields and select the color as transparent.

    Step3: Make image control and button in one group that's it .... 

     

    If you do these 3 steps you are on track 😊.

     

    Do let me know if you see any challenges, I am always happy to help.

     

    Regards,

    Krishna

    Hi @Anonymous 

    The cursor image is hard coded into PowerApps and is context sensitive to the control being selected.  However, to achieve the result you want, put an icon control over the image and size it to the same size as the image.  Make color, hover color and pressed color RGBA(0, 0, 0, 0).  Now a hand icon will appear over the image.
