Display program and / or command that triggred mouse Wait cursor?

FWIW, I'm not sure it's even possible to determine which application causes a mouse cursor to change to the hourglass.  I don't think there are any such Windows messages but please correct me if I'm wrong.

You could determine when the cursor changes using a getcursorinfo and use that information to cut down the applications to a list of those running (a terrible idea, IMO).  But as far as what specific application changed the cursor- I don't think so.

Use Microsoft Spy++. :)

wraith808:
That would only work if the window that's doing it is known, wouldn't it?  Or is there some other functionality that I just don't know that's there?

Oh, and the minimal instructions on using it can be found at https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa242713(v=vs.60).aspx

You can watch all WM_SETCURSOR messages, take a look at the screenshot, @wraith808. :)
