### Method

# GdkX11 X11Display set_cursor_theme

deprecated: 4.16

#### Declaration [src]

    void
    gdk_x11_display_set_cursor_theme (
      GdkDisplay* display,
      const char* theme,
      const int size
    )

#### Description [src]

Sets the cursor theme from which the images for cursor should be taken.

If the windowing system supports it, existing cursors created with `gdk_cursor_new_from_name()` are updated to reflect the theme change. Custom cursors constructed with `gdk_cursor_new_from_texture()` will have to be handled by the application (GTK applications can learn about cursor theme changes by listening for change notification for the corresponding `GtkSetting`).

Deprecated since: 4.16

Use the cursor-related properties of GtkSettings to set the cursor theme.

#### Parameters

`theme`

  Type: `const char*`

  The name of the cursor theme to use, or `NULL` to unset a previously set value.

  The argument can be `NULL`.
  The data is owned by the caller of the method.
  The value is a NUL terminated UTF-8 string.

`size`

  Type: `const int`

  The cursor size to use, or 0 to keep the previous size.
