SDK 53.29 : freeze when using new WA_PointerType

Hi,
trying to use new PointerType (from intuition/pointerclass.h) freezes my system as soon as I use the new pointers.

freeze :
SetWindowPointer(window, WA_PointerType, POINTERTYPE_ROTATE, TAG_DONE);

works when using a "old" pointertype:
SetWindowPointer(window, WA_PointerType, POINTERTYPE_HAND, TAG_DONE);

Are these new pointers exist really on FE ?
#define POINTERTYPE_PEN 35
#define POINTERTYPE_ROTATE 36
#define POINTERTYPE_RUBBER 37
#define POINTERTYPE_SELECT 38
#define POINTERTYPE_SMUDGE 39

thank you

According to the intuition.library release notes some new pointer images were added for version 54.21 (30.7.2015). They don't mention which ones though.

Thanks for your reply.

Therefore, only for betatest system, right ?

My stock FE intuition version is 54.10.

It shouldn't crash though :| If the pointer requested isn't available Intuition should substitute a different one (probably the default pointer) or just not change it.

The crashing should be fixed in the latest V54.23 beta version of intuition.library.
