Changing mouse cursor to paint brush

[riyrse]

Hi people,

I am having one innovation idea. i dont know how far it's possible.plz give me your valuable ideas.

If i open the GIf image it will open in "Windows picture and Fax Viewer".If i want to put any circle in that image means, i have to open via Ms paint.
But i dont want to open in mspaint, i want to put circle in image viewer itself.For that can i change my mouse cursor into paint brush ?
Is it a right way or anyother way to acheive my idea ?

Thanks,

I'm confused. You can't change the cursor of another app like that. Even if you could, how would that make it start drawing circles?

Sorry, but your wording is very unclear.

A brush-like cursor does not paint itself as well as a bomb-like cursor doesn't blowup the computer.
There is a lot of programmer sweat behind.

Only sensible solution is to write your own viewer that supports drawing circles or to make paint the default application.

Can you plz guide me how to create our own viewer?

You could start a single view MFC application and use GDI+ to load the image, to draw things on it and to save it back to file.
But all depends on your knowledge of programming...
