        }

        private void setCursorToAllButtons(Container container) {
        Component[] components = container.getComponents();

        for (int i = 0; i < components.length; i++) {
            if (components[i] instanceof Container){
                setCursorToAllButtons((Container)components[i]);
            }
            if (components[i] instanceof JButton || components[i] instanceof JCheckBox) {
