My wife had just switched from windows to the latest Mint (Cinnamon). The one thing she misses from windows is the mouse pointer. It animates so that it’s light coloured on dark objects and dark on light objects. It makes it easy for her to find.
Anyone know how to do this in Cinnamon?
I have to disagree.
The inverted cursor is part of the default Windows mouse cursor themes.
@OP I don’t think it’s a default on any Linux Desktop Environments though. But you might be able to find a theme that does this. Perhaps a relevant forum post, that mentioned a keyboard shortcut to quickly locate your cursor.
You are disagreeing and then saying totally correct other thing that I also agree with.
Yes, the inverted cursor themes are installed in every Windows, they are not enabled by default, you have to go to options and enable them, which is a part of customizing your installation to your needs.
I wouldn’t count “selecting a different theme” as customizing. But yes, seems we do agree.
