Re: [e-users] Mouse cursor size

Yeah, I just thought I'd mention xmag as an accessibility side note, not 
for increasing pointer size - Carsten had already mentioned e has 
settings for scaling and pointer size so thought that was covered.  xmag 
does create a flashing box at the pointer so would help locate a 
/stationary/ pointer like the expanding disc you mentioned, however it's 
not the intended use case and I'm not sure you can easily exit the 
flashing square without creating the zoom snapshot first - exit the zoom 
with "Q".  KDE has a 'zoom screen into pointer' type feature which draws 
the eye in towards it's location.  I guess that pointer trails effect 
that makes you feel dizzy could actually be helpful for some people to 
keep track of a /moving/ pointer :)


The original poster of this thread was having problems with cursor size 
/consistency/ - pointer being set differently and enlarging under 
various conditions - perhaps e and kwin were both trying to set the root 
cursor.  Installing QT5ct and pointing the QT theming/config towards 
that can sometimes help get everything reading from the same page and 
disabling the QT auto screen scale factor may also help.  These things 
can be quite setup dependent and need tweaking locally.
