said Felix Miata via tde-users: | Not all cursors come in a size between 22 and 48. Try 28. If that's no | help, try different cursors. The dmz-cursor-theme package provides 32. I | specify in /etc/X11/Xresources in some distros. In some others, I put a | file in | | /etc/X11/Xresources.d/. In Debian, it's: | > cat /etc/X11/Xresources/cursors32dmzw | | Xcursor.theme: DMZ-White | Xcursor.size: 32 I made a ~/.Xresources file that contains only the information Nik suggested. It is effective some places nod not someplaces. For instance, Textmaker, the cursors I specify show up perfectly -- and the red I-beam is Heaven! In LibreOffice, Firescape, and the sddm login screen, it does what it wants. I did after some looking find a cursor that pretty much meeds my specs, XCursor Pro Red: https://store.kde.org/p/1639834 What's cool about it, beside it being very red, is this: XCursor Sizes: 22x22, 24x24, 28x28, 32x32, 40x40, 48x48, 56x56, 64x64, 72x72, 80x80, 88x88, 96x96 And here, 32 seems just about right, though I might get bored, or my eyesight continue its current path, and try 40. | I'm thinking that in not all Linux releases and TDE releases is this | enough, but provides the means for using KControl to select DMZ White, | which then picks up size 32 from the global setting. That's the issue here: establishing a global setting. Firefox can do what it wants; I don't much care. But LibreOffice says it gets its theme and size from the system. I have no idea where . . . Never mind! I just opened LibreOffice following a reboot, and it, and now Netfox, have a nice, thick, very red I-beam! Now I don't have to spend half the time chasing my cursor around and can devote myself to bad writing. the gtk-3.0 config file did the trick -- which it hadn't done earlier. Thanks to you and Nik (and Gene -- I suppose I won't have to go out and buy Legos or jacks). Wonder what else there is around here to break . . . -- dep Pictures: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/depscribe/album Column: https://ofb.biz/author/dep/ ____________________________________________________ tde-users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Web mail archive available at https://mail.trinitydesktop.org/mailman3/hyperkitty/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
