Unfortunately we cannot control where applications request the tooltip to be positioned. There's not much we can do without breaking apps. OK. Is it possible then to make an obscured large cursor become translucent or just an outline when a tooltip is showing? |
Created attachment 181889 [details] Tooltip obscured by large mouse cursor SUMMARY STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Launch System Settings and navigate to Appearance & Style > Colours & Themes > Cursors 2. Select Size 72 from combo (drop down) box. 3. Choose Breeze (I'm using Breeze Dark) & click Apply. 4. Launch an application which uses Tooltips, eg Firefox. 5. Mouse over a Tooltip. OBSERVED RESULT ...and you should see it, but obscured because the cursor is much bigger and cover the tooltip. EXPECTED RESULT Ideally the Tooltip would appear at the bottom edge of the cursor (or the top if the tooltip is right at the bottom of the page). SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Garuda Linux (Arch) with Plasma KDE Plasma Version: 6.3.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.14.0 Qt Version: 6.9.0 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION -I use large cursors because they're easier to find on higher res displays, one being a monitor and one a TV. -See attached example of obscured Tooltip.
