The subject speaks for it self. For some reason, i cant change the way the pointer looks. Its really annoying. Anyone else got the same problem ?

AmigaOS4 (i think) introduced 32bit pointers which live in envarc:sys/def_pointer.info and envarc:sys/def_busypointer.info

Using the Pointer prefs program will not help if those def_pointers are there...i think

I haven't tried what happens if ones move them out of envarc:sys because i like the stylish new pointers

Of course you can change them by either copying any pointer icon to envarc:sys or alter them with a 32bit icon paint program (not the one from AmigaOS4), like this one

Thanx buddy. Hopefully it will be fixed in the future. Quite annoying.

Just do what Raziel recommended and use the fine iconeditor from OS4Depot. My guess is creating a new "built-in" iconeditor has quite low priority, so don't waste your time being annoyed while waiting .
