Attachments: The blinking cursor on the top-left
Cursor size in KCM
Information from KWin

The blinking cursor on the top-left

1. The pointer size isn't correct while it's on normal Qt widgets/QML. It is appearing as 36 instead of 24. The size changes when moving the pointer from the widget area to the title bar area, and it is correctly sized in GTK applications (Testing FireFox here). I have the setting on “Resolution dependent” in the cursors KCM.

2. Moving the cursor between any surface and another shows it as a blink in the top-left area. This happens when moving it from application area to Plasma, from application area to title bar and from title bar to Plasma. (Check the attached video, sorry for the lighting.)
This is true also for context menus.

In future please create one bug report per issue. Otherwise it becomes impossible to track.

The first issue is not in KWin: KWin is not responsible for the cursors shown. This is up to the applications.

The second issue falls into KWin area, though I'm not able to reproduce.
