showBusyCursor for any objects ?

[fx.barrett]

I just discovered showBusyCursor which is just wonderful... but it seems that it only works for the WebService class ( and maybe a few more classes )... Is there another property like the showBusyCursor that can be applied in any situation ? I'd really need an animation that will warn the user that data is currently being loaded or something and I'm really lazy to make a flash animation and use that...

Any ideas ? Thanks.

EDIT: I just saw that HTTPService has this property too, guess I have to get used to using HTTPService over URLLoader.

Check out the CursorManager class:

Specifically, CursorManager.setBusyCursor() and CursorManager.removeBusyCursor().

Great, I somehow totally missed that class. Thanks. ;)
