    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”…

      When you wiggle the mouse on KDE, the cursor gets bigger so you can find it on big or multiple monitors.

        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 bigger

      Shake 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.
