New issue 8786 by [email protected]: Inconsistent cursors on linux http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=8786 Our code pretty much assumes that the user's default arrow is GDK_ARROW. For me, this is not actually the case: my system default cursor is a larger arrow. When I mouse over chrome for the first time, it doesn't change the cursor until I hit some sort of content and webkit triggers a cursor change, at which point it changes to a hand or a text selector. Only after mousing back over generic content does it change to GDK_ARROW. This is also visible in the toolbar. The cursor used for the toolbar is always my system default cursor. It seems strange that the cursor should change when going between toolbar and render area. I took a survey of my open programs and it seems there is no consistent behavior between apps. Firefox always sets the cursor to GDK_ARROW. Gnome terminal only sets it to GDK_ARROW for the content area; tabs and menus are system default. Xchat never sets GDK_ARROW, only toggling between special cursors (e.g. resize arrows) and system default. This is a very easy fix. I just want to make sure everyone agrees that firefox is doing it right. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
