Bug ID: 496861
Summary: Cursor sizes seem to be a mess and almost always too
tiny
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 6.2.4
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR

Screenshot 1 (Plasma 6.0.5)
SUMMARY
Cursor sizes seem to be a mess and almost always to be too tiny. I have two KDE
machines, I attached screenshots from both of them. The cursor size varies
wildly depending from application to application, sometimes even using the
wrong cursor bitmap. And even when the cursor is on the plasma task bar, where
I assume it is easier to display correctly, it seems to be wrong and too small
on one computer. Since it's also not possible to set a custom cursor scale as a
user to work around this ( https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=496830 ) this
seems to be an accessibility problem.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Use a white cursor theme to see where apps might revert to wrong cursor
bitmaps
2. See screenshots
OBSERVED RESULT
See screenshots
EXPECTED RESULT
Cursor size is the same as in screenshot 1, not like in all other screenshots.
Screenshot 1+2 are plasma 6.0.5 on machine 1, and screenshot 3+4 is plasma
6.2.4 on machine 2, so regarding size this seems to have gotten even worse with
newer plasma versions with new plasma showing an apparently wrong cursor size
even on the task bar.
