I see this in KDE 4.9.3. The mouse cursor never seems to change while zoomed in. Additionally, the mouse cursor shrinks (instead of using the Size 48 I selected in the cursor theme settings, regardless of how I set the mouse cursor option in the Zoom desktop effects configuration), and it becomes completely invisible after triggering a Plasma panel popup until I zoom back to full. Perhaps these are all related?

Comment 2 Travis Evans 2012-11-22 10:38:30 UTC

The disappearing cursor in my case appears to be Bug289336. The other cursor issues I mentioned in the previous comment appear to be a separate issue, though.

Comment 3 Thomas Lübking 2012-11-22 11:05:29 UTC

Please notice that this can and will not work unless you configure the zoom effect to
a) "keep" the pointer
b) use "proportional" scaling

Doesn't work in that case either, though (hide cursor should catch that configuration)


Loading the "wrong" cursor image in the scaled pointer mode is a much unrelated issue, please file another bug.
