Package: breeze-cursor-theme Version: 4:5.12.4-1 Severity: important
I'm setting severity to important because the visibility of a cursor theme is really important.
The problematic cursor is the cross cursor of Breeze and Breeze_Snow, which are located at the svg files in source tree:
./cursors/Breeze_Snow/src/cursors.svg ./cursors/Breeze/src/cursors.svg
They look good, but when we actually use the cross cursor in a low-contrast background it is definitely a pain to find the location of cursor on the screen.
For example, my cursor theme is Breeze. When I'm taking a screenshot with flameshot, the whole screen is shadowed, according to source code, the cursor will be set to the cross. However, unlike other breeze cursors which are padded with a white margin, the cross cursor is padded with nothing. In this case the cursor has a very low contrast to the background hence very hard to caught by eyes.
Similarly, I checked Breeze_Snow. And I guess the cross cursor will also be hard to find when the background is basically grey or white.
I suggest a fix with high-contrast margin added to the cross cursor.
This seems to be a feature request to be discussed upstream, at least from my part, I'm in no position to make statement about a cursor design, and you definitely don't want to see my drawing skills. :)
So, please, send this feature request upstream directly using the https://bugs.kde.org bugtracker (you'll need to create an account there).
After submitting the request upstream, please also add the link here. Happy hacking, --"Always code as if the person who ends up maintaining your code is a violent psychopath who knows where you live."
