Change cursor to hourglass/wait/busy cursor and back in Qt

Question

I spawn a process that performs a lengthy operation, and I\'d like to give visual feedback that something is happening, so I want to change the cursor to busy and restore it whe

Answer 1

Use this to set the cursor to wait when the process begins:

this->setCursor(Qt::WaitCursor);

And this to restore the cursor back to normal (put this in the slot for QProcess::finished)

this->setCursor(Qt::ArrowCursor);
