# invalidateCursorRects(for:)

Marks as invalid the cursor rectangles of a given view object in the window, so they’ll be set up again when the window becomes key.

```
func invalidateCursorRects(for view: NSView)
```

## Parameters

`view`

The view in the window’s view hierarchy.

## Discussion

If the window is current the key window, window resets the cursor rectangles immediately.

## See Also

[`-  resetCursorRects`](/documentation/AppKit/NSView/resetCursorRects())

Overridden by subclasses to define their default cursor rectangles.
