The mouse cursor is huge, when I hover it over the Plasma desktop. It becomes normal sized when hovering it over Firefox or window decorations (KWin). # xrandr says: Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 2560 x 1080, maximum 8192 x 8192 XWAYLAND0 connected 2560x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 800mm x 340mm 2560x1080 59.98*+ The monitor is a LG 29UM67-P: http://www.lg.com/us/monitors/lg-29UM67-P-ultrawide-led-monitor

(In reply to Alexander Mentyu from comment #3) > related/duplicate? - bug #376245 Maybe, but the reporter of that bug appears to refer to an X11 setup, while I see this using Wayland only. When I switch to X11 (i.e. "Plasma" instead of "Plasma (Wayland)"), the problem does not appear. Additionally, I also see the small cursor for other/X11 applications, not only for KWin. At the very least we should copy over some information from this report to the other.
I have the same problem on Arch Linux: Plasma: 5.11.3 KDE Frameworks 5.40 Wayland 1.14 Qt: 5.9.3 However, I think the problem may not be in Plasma but in Qt. The reason is that anything running XWayland (eg. firefox) or GTK3 has correct cursor size. The cursor also has the correct size when hovering over window decorations as mentioned in the original report. All Qt5-based apps (eg. kwrite, clementine...) have huge cursor size.
I forgot to mention that it happens only with Wayland, X11 is not affected.

I'm also affected on plasma desktop version 5.11.5-1 (on Arch Linux). Added screenshots as examples.
this bug is not happening on my neon dev unstable. But I also can confirm it on Arch Linux, plasma 5.11.5.
It occurs on Neon (stable - non LTS). Plasma 5.11.5. Also sometimes the mouse cursor gets stuck in an incorrect state (for instance, is show as a resizing cursor even when the mouse has left the edge of a window).

This might not be Wayland related, as I also see this on X11 with certain applications (e.g. Firefox). In any case I believe this should be tracked as a separate bug.

Same bug in plasma 5.12 beta, Arch Linux. Cursor is bigger when I hover any native Wayland software (except its window decoration). Xwayland softwares are not affected.

Same thing happening to me on the same system (latest Arch with Plasma 5.11.95). Setting the breeze cursor to 24 instead of "resolution dependent" in systemsettings fixed it.

I have capitaine and obsidian themes installed from kde store. When I use any of them, cursor size is always the same under Wayland even if size is "resolution dependent".

Initially I've seen this only in Wayland session but after playing with additional cursor themes, it indeed looks like it's not Wayland specific (or just caused by changing settings under Wayland session?) but for me it looks like some caching issue. Breeze first used under X11 - ok under X11, I'm seeing this behavior under Wayland. Adwaita theme first used under Wayland - I can now see the same behavior under X11. I can try it with clean account and with and without 2560x1440 external display connected.
Might be fixed with https://phabricator.kde.org/D13267
This is still an issue in Plasma 5.13.90. I have tested it with KDE Neon Dev Unstable. The cursor is way too big and only on window decorations normally sized.
Tested with 5.14.3 still an issue there.
Still an issue on: plasma-workspace-5.14.4-1.fc29
Already reported in Qt bug tracker. https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-67579 comment from a Qt dev... Hi, sadly there isn't an official way to configure cursor size on Wayland (yet). Most toolkits, including Qt, use the de-facto environment variable XCURSOR_SIZE. Could you please check what it's set to on your system, and upload the output of a Qt application when run with WAYLAND_DEBUG=1? There is a proposal on the wayland-devel mailing list to add a protocol for configuring cursor themes (and size) called xcursor-configuration. There's a WIP patch for Qt here: https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/247935/ Note that we can't merge it until the protocol has been merged into the wayland-protocols repository, and kwin would also need to add support for it.

I can confirm the same issue on plasma-workspace-5.15.5-1.fc30 The workaround is to set a fixed cursor size in KDE system settings (24px in my case). If I leave it as default 'dependent on resolution' the cursor is really huge. I don't have XCURSOR_SIZE set in my env. If I run the app with XCURSOR_SIZE=24 it works as expected. The cursor is displayed at correct size on window decorations and GTK/Xwayland apps. Debug info in konsole.log attachment
