Mouse cursor shape doesn't change on UI hover #6065
Comments
I can't repro this on anyhing. Try git.
well... |
Same with git build. Dwm on X11 works, sway works, hyprland up to few weeks ago did work. I didn't change anything that touches GTK or mouse. I'll try installing previous version and test. |
Yup, luckily I have quite a large package cache:
So 0.40 and git mess with the cursor, 0.39.1-5 and prior work as expected. I would like to help but can't bisect every commit between 0.39 and 0.40. Is there anything else I could do to debug this more quickly? |
are you using hyprcursor or xcursor? Does this happen on server-side cursor supporting apps or not? |
Neither I think? I have set defaut cursor theme with nwg-look and it worked ever since until the last update. Is that enough or it requires specifying cursor the other way? With 0.39.1 it works well the way it is, only using nwg-look.
Happens in firefox, chromium, kitty and just about any other program that I run into. I can test with anything specific, just let me know what to try. |
so xcursor |

Bug or Regression?
Regression
Description
Recently it seems that mouse cursor shape doesn't change properly when hovering over different UI elements. It does change but rarely and in a random manner. For instance when it changes to I-beam, it will stay that way for next 2-5 minutes no matter what other UI elements it hovers over (hyperlinks, buttons, different programs that used to switch mouse shape to UI needs immediately), then some random UI element will change shape again, so cursor stays in that shape until some next random UI element succeeds to change shape again.
This is annoying since mouse cursor did react perfectly to any UI element it hovers over. I have no idea when this regression happened but it must be easy to test since I can't be the only one experiencing this.
How to reproduce
Hover over various programs and their UI elements should change mouse shape (I-beam for edit fields, hand pointer for hyperlinks, arrow for almost anything else). Recent hyprland update doesn't do this.
Crash reports, logs, images, videos
"mouse pointer over hyperlink remains arrow"
"mouse pointer over edit field remains whatever it was"
"if edit field manages to turn pointer into I-beam, it will stay like that over buttons and menus"
