When the new busy cursor is active its very hard to tell exactly which screen pixel the mouse is actually pointing to. Trying to do ANYTHING that requires precise mouse location is IMPOSSIBLE will that new cursor. I shouldn't have to wait for the busy cursor to become unbusy to do things like closing other windows, or using menus in other programs or switch to a different workspace using the workspace switcher applet in the panel ... while i wait for the gimp splash screen to finish starting up for 30+ secs. The new busy icon sure is pretty... but it NEEDS to have a pointer indicator telling me where the mouse is actually pointing. The graphic is quite large compared to the 24 pixel panel or compared to the size of the metacity titlebars and some application menu bars. To be able to use any of these object while the busy cursor is up.. the busy cursor needs to have a clear indication as to where the mouse is actually pointing. It doesnt have to be an arrow.. But there does need to be an indication as to where inside the multiple pixel graphic the mouse is actually pointing. The animation effect makes it very difficult to even guess. -jef"+5 points for pretty -7 points for usefulness"spaleta -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
