Title:
Cursor is not rendered in the correct location when at maximum desktop
zoom
Status in GNOME Shell:
Fix Released
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
Affected version
LSB Version:
core-11.1.0ubuntu2-noarch:printing-11.1.0ubuntu2-noarch:security-11.1.0ubuntu2-noarch
Gnome Version: 3.38.4
Occurs in: Xorg and Wayland
Bug summary
1. zoom focus shifts - lets assume a window in the center of the
screen and i am at 3x zoom and i try to point my mouse at something
and try to click that. 90% of the time zoom focus shifts away from the
mouse location to mostly top left corner of the screen.
2. mouse pointing away from the object - Similarly when i reach above
some zoom limit sets say 4x and now lets say i am in a browser trying
to click a link i point at the link cursor changes to hand and when i
try to click i couldnt. So i try to zoom out and i fid that the
pointer was not exactly placed on the link. To sum up when zoomed in
it seems like i am pointing at a link while the cursor is actually
placed away from the link
3. Compressing text - after reaching certain high zoom level as said
4x or 5x the content on the screen becomes a bit compressed on the
sides texts and images and everything on screen becomes elongated
Steps to reproduce
1. Turn on zoom from settings -> Accessibility
2. Zoom in above 3.x
3. Try clicking on some object inside a window
4. Choose Follow mouse cursor or on screen part droopdown choose full screen.
5. My current settings are Screen part: Full Screen, Magnifier cursor pushes
content arround. However these issues persist with all the other options under
magnifier position. Such as Follow mouse cursor or magnifier cursor pushes
content arround or any such option provided.

What happened
1. Zoom focus shifts away from the cursor mostly towards top left of the
window or the desktop.
2.While zoomed in cursor seems to be placed above a link or an object but is
actually placed awway either to the left or right of the object. Original
position of the cursor reveals when zoomed out.
3.Content on screen seems to be compressed from the sides as text and other
objects appear elongated.
I have also posted the same issue on the GNOME Community:
