+--- Thread: Mouse pointer theme is changed to default(sort of) at every new session (/showthread.php?tid=4103)
Mouse pointer theme is changed to default(sort of) at every new session - sanmayjoshi - 05-30-2017
Hello,
I just chose a different theme for pointer, the black theme; and shut the pc down. Later when I turned it on, the mouse-pointer theme was sort of mixed up. In some areas it would be white and in some, black.
Is it just me, or is it a bug?
Thanks.

Don't know if this is the case for you or not, but that can happen if you're running some things as root vs. regular user account. (Theme change will apply to user account, but not to root.) Can you be more specific about what you're running that shows a white mouse cursor?

Thanks for your kind reply.
When I changed pointer theme to 'Black', and restarted the pc, the theme changes to default for every case except when hovering over a clickable button; there comes a 'Black' themed hand. I haven't tested it much, so I will add more tomorrow if I see something.
Again thanks for your reply.

I saw nothing else(after a bit of tests) than what is written above. Is the same happening to you [member=16]gold_finger[/member] .

Sorry -- completely forgot to get back to you on this.
Tested mouse theme change here and did not run into any problems, even after restart. Only themes I have are the default black and white options. Changed from black to white and all worked fine, even when opening a thunar session as root.
Are you using custom themes you've added to the installation, or just the default ones that came with LL3.4? If custom theme(s), provide link to where you got it/them from so I can download and test.

Thanks for help [member=16]gold_finger[/member] ! Sorry for late reply.
I think it is an issue associated with screen resolution and screen size. Also, from the info you have provided, it is pretty certain that it isn't a bug. The screen I use is the default one of the netbook, with resolution of 1024×500 approx. and default resolution is 1024×768. Because of such a difference, GIMP is having some issues too, like the window extends beyond the screen and the maximize button is not working. Note: changing theme from preferences in edit menu makes GIMP use maximize button.
Again, thanks for your generous help.

I've seen similar with mouse themes before, this fixed it for me

Thanks [member=357]JmaCWQ[/member] , It worked!
(06-21-2016, 06:30 AM)JmaCWQ link Wrote: Just before a restart set your mouse to the desired cursor scheme with no other programs open, then open Session and Startup settings, on the general tab under Logout Settings check 'Automatically save session on logout', click Close.
If it's already checked uncheck it, click close, open Session and Startup settings again, check it, click Close.
Restart.
