https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=676931 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=676931#c0 Summary: mouse-pointer size should increase when connected to an external BIG display Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.4 Version: Factory Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: GNOME AssignedTo: bnc-team-gnome@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: psankar@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de CC: sndirsch@novell.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- I am not sure if this should be filed under X.Org or GNOME. When I connect my laptop to an external projector, the mouse pointer size should increase proportionally. It is very difficult to work with a normal size mouse pointer (the one on laptop screens) when the display is projected to an external display. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

It of course makes the cursor easier to see, even on the laptop's built-in display... I don't think this needs a feature on its own. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

May I suggest that you pick a black cursor theme? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I kinda like mouse when it has a long tail. I just found DMZ Black Large, which I think is a better choice than the white one. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

If I open a gedit window and a groupwise window side-by-side, gedit shows black mouse pointer and when I move the mouse to the groupwise window, it becomes white (old theme) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
