<mx:Application name="CheckBox_useHandCursor_test"
        xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
        layout="vertical"
        verticalAlign="middle"
        backgroundColor="white">
 
    <mx:CheckBox id="checkBox"
            label="useHandCursor"
            useHandCursor="{checkBox.selected}"
            buttonMode="true"
            selected="true" />
 
</mx:Application>

You can also set the useHandCursor property using ActionScript, as seen in the following example:

    <mx:Script>
        <![CDATA[
            private function checkBox_change(evt:Event):void {
                checkBox.useHandCursor = checkBox.selected;
            }
        ]]>
    </mx:Script>
 
    <mx:CheckBox id="checkBox"
            label="useHandCursor"
            useHandCursor="true"
            buttonMode="true"
            selected="true"
            change="checkBox_change(event);" />
