I've mangled my cursor settings by
attempting to install
phinger-cursors-dark-left from
https://github.com/phisch/phinger-cursors/. Now in Control Center =>
Peripherals => Mouse, Cursor Theme tab, I have only Adwaita and No theme
(classic X cursors).
It appears that TDE uses a specific archive format for cursor packages,
different from those used by Gnome, etc. I get a message, "The file
index.theme does not appear to be a valid cursor theme archive."
There is no description of the file format in the Help Center file for
the Mouse module, though there is a cryptic message:
"The features provided by this tab may not be available on some systems.
Your system may need to be updated to support cursor themes."
There appear to be no configuration files in .trinity/share/apps|config
relating to the Mouse module.
Apparently you missed my recent thread last posted to Monday: pointer size
adjust
# grep rsor .trinity/share/config/startupconfig
# kcminputrc Mouse cursorTheme ''
kcminputrc_mouse_cursortheme="DMZ-White"
# kcminputrc Mouse cursorSize ''
kcminputrc_mouse_cursorsize="32"
#
No, I did read that, but I didn't realize that it's the only way to
enable a
different cursor set.
Other than a text editor, I don't know any way to change this file's
content. I had to put "DMZ-White" and "32" in place of ""
to make the
changes I wanted.
Okay, thanks for the clarification.
