I find this hilarious. Is this an easter egg? When shaking my mouse cursor, I can get it to take up the whole screens height.
This is KDE Plasma 6.
It has replaced idly making selection squares on the desktop.
My kids love making the cursor fill the screen.
Feature moment
"Time for my favourite game, is there a limit?
–several hours later –
if there is I couldn’t find it but check out my frame rate now"
Ahh another sophisticated LetsGameItOut enjoyer. Right on. :D
“Got it, got it, goooot it…” (DrKonqi coredump) “Perfect!” (Fanfare)
I hope it’s never changed, absolutely fabulous
Managed to get it to fill a whole 1200x1920 (not a typo, screen is sideways) screen without shrinking once. It is always fun to do.
I love this feature so much.
Ha I also noticed this in the last week and assumed it was a feature, not a bug
I do this for fun while waiting for things to load
No, I don’t think it is an easter egg. Probably just a missing check in code that needed to be done.
It’s by design as mentioned in this bug report.
There is a hidden config to cap the over magnification on shake
[Effect-shakecursor] OverMagnification=0Where do you set this option?
This feature used to be in KDE 5 as well though, but with a size cap. I suspect the removal of the size cap is intentional rather than a bug.
Thank you for doing the science for us. That was entertaining
That’s my wife’s default cursor size
so your wife likes bbc (big black cursor)
thanks. I was trying to find this out but I’d constantly slip up and let it shrink.
