Checking a couple of examples I tried changing the Tkinter mouse cursor to indicate a busy state while my app is pushing/pulling xmlrpc data. It doesn't seem to make a difference as I don't notice the cursor actually change in the span of the 3-5 second transaction. I tried changing the cursor of the root widget, the toplevel widget, etc. all to no avail. Is there something really basic I'm overlooking? Is it enough to just change the state and that's it, or do I have to explictly refresh things?
