Vista - wait cursor

Is there any way to set a wait cursor that block any click , for example when
loading a part of the application ?

FrameworkElement declares the Cursor property, which can be set to
Cursors.Wait if you want to show the hourglass temporarily. As for
preventing mouse clicks from having an effect on the UI while the cursor is
an hourglass, you'll need to code that logic yourself. Perhaps you might
want to set the IsEnabled property to false on the Window/Page while it loads
whatever data you are dealing with.

You can block mouse down for a whole page by listening to PreviewMouseDown
and marking the event as handled. For the cursor, you'll also want to use
ForceCursor=true so that things like hyperlinks will still use the wait
cursor.
