Mouse pointer is scaled as of display config is scaled #61

@hideyukn88 Nope. It doesn't work. It's the UI interface that changes, the mouse pointer size is still big and fail on selection. |

@hideyukn88 When the mouse is placed on the border, it is not enlarged, only when it is placed in the menu or text area. |
@ati46 , I am not able to reproduce that enlarged cursor in your video with Ubuntu 20.04 LTS with gnome-terminal. For reference, would you please check if your gnome-terminal is running in X11 backend or Wayland mode ? (For me I can't repro in both mode though) Normally by default, it runs on wayland mode (as WSLg runs on wayland compositor), but can switch to X11 backend by "export GDK_BACKEND=x11". Also, the regarding to selection, the cursor's hotspot is upper left corner of cursor bounding box, not center of cursor image, please check if selection is made at hotspot? Thanks! |
After restart yesterday, the mouse pointer is not large, and, gnome-terminal is not scaled too (previously scaled). No further configuration on WSLg. And the selection hotspot is at the center of the characters, not the left corner. wslg-pointer-bug-s2.mp4 |
After last windows 10 next updated today. The cursor is still scaled. |
I have the same issue here on Windows11/WSLg with a 4k screen / 200% scaling. |
I face this error |

If you're using wayland, this might work for you:
This sets the size to 12 which looks to me about the same size as that of the native cursor. You can change the size to whatever you want. To view the current value: |
The gsettings workaround is unacceptable if you are using waypipe to access a remote machine. Microsoft needs to fix this bug that has been reported more than two years ago. They haven't even acknowledged it. |

The pointer should have a normal size compared to running apps. Text selection should be selected only under that cursor.
Actual behavior
It's scaled to a bigger size and does wrong text selection.
