Full Version: Change cursor size?
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
I'm running GIMP 2.10 on Ubuntu 21.04 with Cinnamon desktop.  The tool cursor is absolutely huge, though my ordinary cursor is regular-sized.  This seems to be specific to the Cinnamon desktop.  I tried GIMP under the default Ubuntu desktop (Unity?) and the tool cursor was normal size.

Is there a way to adjust cursor size?  I didn't see anything in Preferences.  FWIW, I do not have any special cursor settings/sizes active in Cinnamon itself.

Thanks!

I'm using Mint 20.2 (based on 20.04 LTS, Linux kernel 5.4.0-81-generic) with Cinnamon 5.0.5 and the tool cursor seems to be a normal size. This applies to GIMP V2.10.24 and 2.99.7.

Xenopeek on the Mint forums suggested that this might be a display resolution issue.  I believe this is probably the case, as moving GIMP to my secondary, lower-res screen resulted in a normal cursor.  However, my main screen is a 1080p TV and seems to require 1920x1080, as trying other resolutions causes it to gripe that the TV doesn't support the selected resolution.

I used the same resolution on Windows 10 and the GIMP cursor was normal.

Huh
