SUMMARY After changing mouse theme it doesn't work if the mouse over some elements for example logout screen, desktop and somewhere in the panel. Doesn't matter how many times you change theme, on the mentioned elements the cursor remains the same, as it was when plasma was started. plasmashell --replace, resolves it. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Change Cursor theme under Settings -> Cursor 2. examine the cursor over desktop, logout screen OBSERVED RESULT cursor switches back to the theme which was set at start SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS KDE Plasma Version: 5.18.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.70 Qt Version: 5.15
I changed theme 2 times, just noticed the lock screen theme is also different. So I currently have 3 themes at the same time. And plasmashell --replca doesn't resolves it.
