Can you change the material instance on the software cursor?

So im interested in knowing if you can change the software cursor material instance, and or can you make it something that you can control? if not all good.

If I understand correctly, one of the following should point you in the right direction:

So i figured out that you can change the curser simply by creating a new instance of one in the table available in project settings and in software cursers and making a widget with the image that controls which one you want to see in game. for my instance i would need to control the material instance of the software curser. Im learning by myself a lot of coding so when i need something i usually solve the issue either the day or hour of posting. My major issue from that point was figuring out how to swap it on the fly, which i did with a set curser with the target being the widget i needed to change inside of.


I find it very fun to figure out new ways to code but thanks for the help.

No problem.
