- ***********************************************************
- V. Known Problem With This Cursor Collection.
-
- The only problem with this cursor collection is noted as:
-
- 1. Flags which are WHITE may be unusable if the
- desktop color scheme appears white. The "Japan.cur"
- cursor and the "Belarus.cur" cursor are good examples of
- this. Rather than alter a flag's color, change the color
- of your desktop color scheme by:
-
- A. Right-clicking on the desktop and selecting:
- PROPERTIES.
- B. Under the APPEARANCE tab, click ITEM and
- select WINDOW.
- C. In the COLOR box, select light-grey. This
- changes the background color of application
- windows to the color light-grey.
-
