Usage

• Image is returned, which is the arrow used by the Sphere engine.

Examples

The retrieved arrow image is just like any other image. This example will load the default arrow if a certain variable is true:

var use_default_images = false;
var custom_arrow_filename = "arrow.png";
var menu_arrow = null;
// ...
if (use_default_images)
  menu_arrow = GetSystemArrow();
else
  menu_arrow = LoadImage(custom_arrow_filename);
// ...
// Use menu_arrow as an image down here somewhere.

Notes

• The Sphere engine currently doesn't use the arrow anywhere. However, the arrow image is still available by default in all recent Sphere packages.

• The arrow conventionally points to the right, and is positioned to the left of menu items. It is useful as a simple menu cursor image.
