I AM NOT ALONE
There’s dozens of us!
i got it to cover the whole screen once.
It just keeps growing
Ha! I got it to cover my two screens. After that i was pretty beat tho.
challenge icsiepted! I just need to buy a 3rd monitor
I discovered this by accident, and I’m happy to know others are doing it too.
I’m a normal human then! I thought I was the only one doing it, I’m glad to know I was wrong
Sadly, as soon you hit printscreen (which opens spectacle) the mouse cursor unceremoniously returns to its original size. No shrinking, just plop.
I was going to suggest setting a delay in Spectacle, but seems like the enlarged mouse cursor does not show up in screenshots, even if you set “Include mouse pointer”…
Hold sys/win+ + key
…big through zoom. Now keep going, you’ll enter a different universe.
Got mine 2 4k monitors tall when I showed my wife.
I’m sure she was super impressed.
I don’t use KDE, could someone explain? This looks fun
When you wiggle the mouse on KDE, the cursor gets bigger so you can find it on big or multiple monitors.
Oh wow that’s neat! Thank you!
There is no upper limit so it keeps growing untill you stop shaking.
They added this thing to find your mouse, by moving it the cursor gets bigger and biggerShake Cursor makes the cursor grow when you “shake” it. This helps you locate that tiny little arrow on your large, cluttered screens when you lose it among all those windows.
Is that what that is?! It just randomly started happening and I thought an update screwed up my compositor.
So with that question answered, how the hell do I turn it off, because it’s annoying as hell.
Edit: trying to get the image to show on Lemmy
And here I am, thinking I was the only one doing this.
Wtf, why do we have the same wallpaper?
lmao When they implemented it I first thought this was one of those obscure KDE bugs.
Yeah. It’s one of those things where I’m sure it’s genuinely useful to some people but why on Earth is it on by default?!
Because shaking your cursor to spot it is kind of universal?
Fair. It still should be communicated better though, because it really does feel like a bug when you first encounter it.
Kirk steps through
What have I done
