Bug ID: 407749
Summary: KWin menus use a too big cursor
Product: kwin
Version: 5.14.5
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: p...@ralfj.de
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
The cursor changes whenever it hovers a KWin control (including title bar
context menus, the menus that appear when left-clicking a window icon, and
moving the cursor over the alt-tab menu): it approximately doubles in size.
Looks like somehow KWin thinks it needs a high-dpi cursor theme when it does
not?
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Right-click a title bar, and hover the menu that appears.
OBSERVED RESULT
The cursor doubles in size.
EXPECTED RESULT
The cursor should stay the same as it is for the rest of the system.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma:
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.14.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.54.0
Qt Version: 5.11.3
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
My internal laptop screen has a resolution of 4K, but I am using it with
1920x1080 (I change between internal and external screens a lot, and with KDE
seemingly not supporting dynamic zoom factor changes, that's my only option).
Also, my laptop is one of these weird "reverse prime" machines where the
external HDMI port is connected to the NVidia chip, but the internal screen is
connected to the Intel chip. I am using SDDM, and added the following to
/usr/share/sddm/scripts/Xsetup :
xrandr --setprovideroutputsource 1 0
xrandr --auto
So SDDM starts on my 4K internal screen, then the external screen gets added
(which SDDM does not handle very well, but that's SDDM's problem), then I log
in and whenever KDE applies the stored screen configuration the resolution
changes from 4K to 1080p. In the midst of this, it seems like KWin gets
confused about the cursor theme.
