Description: The excel like "fat cross" cursor looks ugly IMO. At least on windows. That it's too big and fat is one thing and is a matter of taste. But it has extra shadow that does not belong there. I attach a magnified to 600% picture of the calc fat cross and the excel fat cross for comparison. The extra shadows can be clearly seen. I attach three images: 1. Fat cross from Calc 2. Fat cross from Excel 3. Fat cross as I'd like it I did not consider hight DPI displays here. Steps to Reproduce: Start calc and choose the view option to use a fat cross as the mouse pointer. Actual Results: Ugly fat cross with extra shadows. Expected Results: Nice fat cross. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: n/a

You are likely aware of bug 104169. I propose this be a duplicate of bug 142500, so please write this there (you may reuse attachment 123456 [details] links, no need to reupload). *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 142500 ***
I don't see how this bug is a duplicate of bug 142500. The subject of bug 142500 is the lack of the curstors for high DPI displays. In this report, the form of the cursor on low DPI is discussed. I'd prefer to discuss the two issues separately. So please re-open this issue.
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/page.cgi?id=fields.html#bug_status Reopen is different, this would be Unconfirmed. But both are for designer, and it's better to keep together IMO, just explain. If just HiRes is done there, then it's easy to set this one New.
The cross is crisp for me in the running application and also in the PNG.

Created attachment 178089 [details] Fat-Cursor comparison I can confirm the issue on Windows 10. No matter if SKIA Hardware- or Software-Rendering is used...
Forgot to say, I don't use a high-dpi monitor. Scale-Factor in Windows is 100%.
I reproduce. To see the cross, go to Tools ▸ Options ▸ Calc ▸ View and check "Themed" Version: 7.5.0.0.alpha1+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 52c75986adc2b370eb55ce918ab1db0a95831c83 CPU threads: 2; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19044; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: fi-FI (fi_FI); UI: en-US Calc: threaded Jumbo
Hi, anyone can see the themed cursor with https://github.com/LibreOffice/core/blob/master/icon-themes/<icon-theme-name>/vcl/res/fatcross.<png;svg> Assuming Windows use default Colibre and no Hi-DPI so probably the file is https://github.com/LibreOffice/core/blob/master/icon-themes/colibre/vcl/res/fatcross.png Comparing this to the screenshot, I can see differences in shadow darkness and some extra pixels also. So all I can say is this bug need code, not design tuning.
