I have mouse cursors of my own design. I install them in Windows without problems. How can I install them in Xfce?
For Windows:
BIG_NE_busy_.cur
BIG_NE_diagonal_NW-SE_.cur
BIG_NE_diagonal_SW-NE_.cur
BIG_NE_help_select_.cur
BIG_NE_horizontal_E-W_.cur
BIG_NE_move_.cur
BIG_NE_normal_select_.cur
BIG_NE_text_select_.cur
BIG_NE_vertical_N-S_.cur
BIG_NE_working_in_background_.cur
These are large, easy to see, and instead of pointing to upper-left, they point to upper-right (NE), so they don't interfere with tooltips.
I have the original art (crafted in CorelDraw) and can output almost any format, any size.
What format do I need and where do they get stored in the filesystem? Then, how to I persuade Linux to actually use them?
Thank You.
PS: I searched for this (and the 2 previous requests) for days and could find nothing. - M.

Re: Custom mouse cursor ... How?
That seems like picking a cursor that already exists. I want to roll my own including cursor, pointer, sizers, mover, etc.Pierre wrote:that is not as straightforward as it seems:

Is there any way to upload and attach a graphic file in this forum?
Re: Custom mouse cursor ... How?
when you click on reply,
- below where you are posting is: options / upload attachment tab(s)
use that - watch the file size, though.
