CONSOLE_CURSOR_INFO) structure),
the low word is the cursor visibility flag (1 - the cursor is visible, 0 - the cursor is hidden).

Remarks
- To show the cursor in a DI_USERCONTROL
dialog item, it is also necessary to move the cursor to the necessary position:
Coord.X=X;
Coord.Y=Y;
Info.SendDlgMessage(hDlg,DM_SETCURSORPOS,3,(LONG_PTR)&Coord);
The default cursor position in a
DI_USERCONTROL is
{-1,-1}.
- To show a cursor filling the entire character cell under
Windows 9x/Me set the high word of Param2 to 99.
Example
// set the cursor of 3rd element as fully filled cell
Info.SendDlgMessage(hDlg,DM_SETCURSORSIZE,3,(LONG_PTR)MAKELONG(1,99));
