Description V Stuart Foote 2021-05-26 13:26:19 UTC
The new 'fat cross' cursor for cell selection on a Calc sheet needs additional sizes of the cursor designed to support use at higher screen resolution of modern display. Its single 17px matrix is too small at HiDPI.
Comment 1 Heiko Tietze 2021-05-31 07:59:14 UTC
Don't see need for UX input. The cursors for high resolution are just missing.
Comment 2 Heiko Tietze 2021-05-31 08:00:52 UTC
But I wonder if this can be done until 7.2 or if we have to revert the patch / make it experimental somehow since it makes Calc hard to use under this environment.

Why the patch for bug 104169 was accepted if high resolution cursors are missing ?

Remains an issue

Setting Calc to the Themed pointer (Tools -> Options -> Calc -> View "Pointer" 'Themed' radio button) gives the "FatCross" pointer icon that is too small on HiDPI displays.
