Hi,

the breeze cursor theme is not providing the size 24, but that's the default. Due to it missing KWin is not able to pick cursors for e.g. resizing windows. It would be totally awesome if that could be fixed by breeze providing also cursors in size 24.

I started yesterday with the inkscape icons and there are also icons for the mouse behavior. So it would be realy awsome to have the svg files from the mouse theme (if available).

I haven't given the cursor theme any of the TLC it needs. Doesn't help that I said I'd release a white version (which I have yet to do);

I'll make a weekend project of it. Definitely adding a size 24 (or at least correcting the size 32 to fit in a 24px context if I can) and maybe I'll prepare a white theme. I don't actually have access to the repo they belong to, but at the very least I can fire off a tar with the updates. I'd also like to update a couple other minor points in regards to the cursors which have bugged me anyway.

If I'm not swamped this weekend I'll also add a white theme, and maybe I'll throw in some other colours too if I hit my groove.

I don't actually have access to the repo they belong to

Is this the breeze repo on KDE servers?

Indeed they are, just found 'em;
https://projects.kde.org/projects/kde/workspace/breeze/repository/revisions/master/show/cursors

I haven't had the chance to get started on the corrections, my weekend got crowded up with a few things and I haven't had time to get to work on em'. Plus I need to brush up, I recall the scripts used to build the theme were dramatically altered, so I'll need to familiarise myself.

I'll ping an update here when I get started, I'll aim for this week or upcoming weekend.

Any news on this? We still don't have working resize cursors right now and the 5.2 release is coming up fast -- this may be release blocker material, so it's very very critical.

Oh geez, I though I actually had to make them fit a 24px box to "say" they are 24px - I was busy trying to re-do the whole theme for this; based on the Oxygen icons, I can fib the size. I'm doing this now.

I'm also adjusting the hit-points on some of the cursors; I wasn't quite happy with some of them.

So, yes, right now I'm re-labeling their sizes, once I re-generate the cursors and do my testing and everything appears kosher, I'll be sending up the modified files. While I do this I *may* also get around to re-making the "snow" variant. Expect the updated cursors later today. Sorry about gumming up the works.

Update: The updated cursors built and seem to be working fine. Exactly the same as the old ones, but they now register in the system as 24 and 48.

Alright, I've got an update;

We've got an all-new build unified build script for the cursors; Just run build.sh and then do the cmake thing if that's how you roll. Breeze has been updated to include 4 missing cursors, visually it's been tweaked a minor bit, and the resize cursors have been fixed as well. Breeze Snow has been added as an all-new theme; a white version of breeze with minor tweaks.

So, files! I wasn't sure what would be wanted (and who will be downloading these) so I just put together every download I could imagine; sources, compiled versions, and complete sets with everything included.

Before putting them into wider distribution, I highly recommend making sure I didn't screw up the cmakelists. I probably have. A lot. Also, quite a bit has changed about how these things are assembled; I would also request a second pair of eyes to make sure I didn't break anything or misplace a cursor.

Sources
These are the raw sources. By running ./build.sh you will get the complete versions.

Compiled Cursors
Ready to be extracted to your local icon folder.

Complete Packages
Includes both source and compiled cursors.

EDIT: Wait 5 more minutes until you download the Breeze cursors, the new corner resize cursors have the wrong border opacity. I'm correcting now.
EDIT Again: Good to go.

*hugs* - thanks a lot

Excellent; Thank you very much!

Thank you!

If you guys don't mind, I'd like to try to dump one more cursor into the 4.2 release; Our current high-contrast cursors are broken, so I put together some replacements. There's 3 sizes (24, 48 and 72) in this set.
