Why is this being discussed on ubuntu's bug tracker, instead of wayland's, or the wayland mailing list. Or even the wayland IRC channel. You're both often in there.
min2: Using "scalable vector graphics" just implies using a non-raster graphics format. It does not require dealing with pointer scaling different than the existing format. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/940640 Title: Mouse cursors should be vector graphics Status in “dmz-cursor-theme” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “weston” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in “xorg-server” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: In a modern system the mouse cursors should be some kind of scalable vector graphics. This will become increasingly important with upcoming new high resolution screen panels that allows for higher pixel density. Other systems are already moving in this direction with vector graphics for mouse cursors. Currently mouse cursors often come in several variants such as Chameleon-White-Large, Chameleon-White-Regular, and Chameleon-White-Small. Vector graphics could unify this to just one variant that is scalable to arbitrary size and provide more flexibility. This will also be more important as Ubuntu expands to other devices such as on 10-inch tablets and 52-inch TVs.
