[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1691676] Re: Mouse cursor (pointer) is missing during desktop zoom in gnome-shell
Greetings friends, I've come up with a simple solution that will work in the short term. I updated last night and was immediately pissed that the one thing I require in any OS, the magnifier, no longer worked on Ubuntu Gnome after updating to Artful, but Today I came up with a simple workaround. All you must do is 1. Go into universal access -> zoom -> crosshairs 2. Turn it on. 3. Enable overlap mouse 4. change the length to be as short as possible, or as long as you want 5. Turn the thickness down very low, or what's comfortable for you 6. Change the color to solid black with no alpha This will create a connected cross in the middle of the screen where the pointer would be. The only thing really missing or left to be desired here is the white border, but nothing I can do about that. ;/ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1691676 Title: Mouse cursor (pointer) is missing during desktop zoom in gnome-shell Status in GNOME Shell: Fix Released Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Mouse cursor (pointer) is missing during desktop zoom in gnome-shell ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 17.10 Package: gnome-shell 3.24.2-0ubuntu3 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.10.0-20.22-generic 4.10.8 Uname: Linux 4.10.0-20-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.5-0ubuntu3 Architecture: amd64 Date: Thu May 18 15:24:20 2017 DisplayManager: lightdm GsettingsChanges: b'org.gnome.shell' b'app-picker-view' b'uint32 1' b'org.gnome.shell' b'favorite-apps' b"['firefox.desktop', 'org.gnome.Terminal.desktop', 'rhythmbox.desktop', 'org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop', 'org.gnome.Software.desktop', 'yelp.desktop']" b'org.gnome.desktop.interface' b'gtk-im-module' b"'gtk-im-context-simple'" b'org.gnome.desktop.interface' b'scaling-factor' b'uint32 1' InstallationDate: Installed on 2017-05-03 (15 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 17.10 "Artful Aardvark" - Alpha amd64 (20170502) SourcePackage: gnome-shell UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-shell/+bug/1691676/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1691676] Re: Mouse cursor (pointer) is missing during desktop zoom in gnome-shell
Adding this story so maybe it will be easier for others to find. When I upgraded to Ubuntu Artful Aardvark 17.10 the screen booted up in zoom mode and it scrolled whenever I moved the mouse. I figured out how to get the zoom to normal size, but the mouse cursor disappeared or was invisible. If I pressed any key (e.g. SHIFT), the cursor would flash and I could repeatedly press the key to navigate. I didn't realize the Universal Access Zoom was still on because the zoom was 1:1. Turning the zoom feature off entirely made the mouse appear as normal. Perhaps the Universal Access Zoom should be off by default on updates. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1691676 Title: Mouse cursor (pointer) is missing during desktop zoom in gnome-shell Status in GNOME Shell: Confirmed Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Mouse cursor (pointer) is missing during desktop zoom in gnome-shell ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 17.10 Package: gnome-shell 3.24.2-0ubuntu3 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.10.0-20.22-generic 4.10.8 Uname: Linux 4.10.0-20-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.5-0ubuntu3 Architecture: amd64 Date: Thu May 18 15:24:20 2017 DisplayManager: lightdm GsettingsChanges: b'org.gnome.shell' b'app-picker-view' b'uint32 1' b'org.gnome.shell' b'favorite-apps' b"['firefox.desktop', 'org.gnome.Terminal.desktop', 'rhythmbox.desktop', 'org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop', 'org.gnome.Software.desktop', 'yelp.desktop']" b'org.gnome.desktop.interface' b'gtk-im-module' b"'gtk-im-context-simple'" b'org.gnome.desktop.interface' b'scaling-factor' b'uint32 1' InstallationDate: Installed on 2017-05-03 (15 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 17.10 "Artful Aardvark" - Alpha amd64 (20170502) SourcePackage: gnome-shell UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-shell/+bug/1691676/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
