Hi Tony...

The Drag and Drop API doesn't take a QCursor, it takes a QPixmap.  But yes, it says "We recommend using 32 x 32 cursors," which is why in the example I gave I did:

	drag->setDragCursor(pixmap.scaled(QSize(32, 32)), Qt::MoveAction);

Yup, I know.  But the repro case I gave was pretty cut and dry... it was just using the puzzle example and then suggesting a one line change:

So my question remains.  Has *anyone* seen setDragCursor work on the Mac in 4.5 or 4.6... ever?  Is anyone using this function successfully?

Thanks,

P.S. In another platform difference, I can't seem to get the status bar to pay attention to the frame settings on widgets embedded in status bars, e.g.:

        statusBarMessage = new QLabel(this);
        statusBarMessage->setFrameShape(QFrame::NoFrame);
        statusBarMessage->setFrameShadow(QFrame::Plain);
        statusBar()->addWidget(statusBarMessage);

Regardless of the NoFrame and Plain, I get a frame on the message inside the status bar on the mac.
