Custom Pointer API
</h2>
<p>
Android N introduces the Custom Pointer API, which lets you customize the
appearance, visibility, and behavior of the pointer. This capability is
especially useful when a user is using a mouse or touchpad to interact with
UI objects. The default pointer uses a standard icon. This API also includes
advanced functionality such as changing the pointer icon's appearance based
on specific mouse or touchpad movements.
</p>
<p>
To set a pointer icon, override the <code>onResolvePointerIcon()</code>
method of the <code>View</code> class. This method uses a
<code>PointerIcon</code> object to draw the icon that corresponds to a
specific motion event.
