Greetings,

I would like to use a custom cursor theme in Plasma.
I have placed the folder in home/.icon folder. The system does see it but not respects globally.
There are some applications where the cusur changes its appearance.

What is the proper location to place the icon folder into?
Should it be some Konsole magic charms to encourage these cursors to be omnipotent?

My usual signs of gratitude.

By my knowledge the system cursors are installed to the /usr/share/icons/...To change the default cursor theme there can be extra steps i.e. this is depending the distribution.

The Debian and the Debian based are using the 'alternatives' /1/ .
