Sweet. Like the red hand *Smile

 

Thanks!
It was meant to be visible on most backgrounds. *Cool

 

I've been using it(if this is the same as ( Forums) for a bit now. I fact I'm incorporating them, in my next theme, I've started*Biggrin

 

*Cool
Alright!
It had to include all that the standard pointers have, size, specs,... this way I can set it as default without any issues.

What do you mean by "same as ( Forums) for a bit" ?...*Huh
It is an update to the one at EightForums, this time added higher DPI for Win8/10.

 

OOOPS same as 8 Forums I meant. The higher DPI, wouldn't matter to me personally I guess, as I use a HDTV set to 1080p, and the ones from 8 forums work very well for me. Unless you recommend I switch, but they're looking sharp to me.

 

Actually I needed to add some extras:




If you take a closer look, the standard cursor theme uses system (hidden? black?) cursors for the cross and text states.
These were added for the Red and (Aero7) White themes.





They would look pretty weird on colored cursors themes.
And I honestly don't know where they are located and to specify them in the install ini, if needed.

 

You're right. The ones at EightForums are fine.
The higher dpi isn't an issue. I also never use that, having a smaller monitor than yours too...
There aren't many people using the higher layers, I guess they are meant for high end screens, maybe Surface Pro or above 4K where the system uses 200% DPI settings.

This is an interesting poll to take:
Which DPI size is your monitor running on?
- smaller 100% (default)
- medium 125%
- larger 150%
- very large 200%
- gigantic above 200%
- custom (user defined)

So those (small percent?) of people using 200% can still use the pointers and look sharp.
You don't need to switch, they are made just in case, on par with the default ones.



Note The switch should be flawless: the same names are used, should you use the ones on EightForums, installing these will replace all previous Aero-Red cursors. They still look the same.

 

Go ahead and create the poll. That might help you and others when making cursors, or updating old ones.

You mean if I install these new ones, I won't have them twice? Cool.

 

Can I do that? That would be my first one...

That's right! Already did that. *Cool

 

Yep! The instructions are here: Reading and Posting Messages

 

Thanks!
I'll give it a try.
