Description:

Red dot cursor is just that: a cursor theme with red dots :)

Now designed to work with the upcoming KDE 3.2!

The sources and some docs are included in the package so you can use it to create your own theme.

========================
Thanks to fredrikh who has provided the necessary information to complete this set for KDE.




Changelog:

15/10/2003:
* The upcoming KDE 3.2 includes a new easy install system for cursors.

The file was modified accordingly to follow this new standard. Just go to kcontrol->Peripherals->Mouse->Cursor Theme->Install New Theme... and select the file you just downloaded.

Just that simple!


14/03/2003:
* Changed install directory to ~/.icons/reddot. Now it's much cleaner

Don't know why this isn't published (maybe it's not supposed to be public yet, and is open by accident?); but the KDE bugzilla has some info on how to use XCursor with KDE properly:

It works fine. But does anyone have the FULL list of hash'es? Maybe, with "examples", because cursor names are a little ambigious.

 missing 3 cursors?

I have xfree86 4.3 rc 1 (aka 4.2.99.901), but can't find:
fd_double_arrow,
bd_double_arrow,
or
crossed_circle
(forbidden).

I suppose 'target' will work for crossed_circle (strange) and 'sizing' for the corner-resize arrows (the other two icons i am mising are top left+bottom right, and top right+bottom left window resize arrows).

Are the 'icons' (cursors) just not a complete set yet - do they plan on adding more? Because if they don't add those two 'combined' cursors for top left+bottom right, and top right+bottom left then qt or kde DOES need a patch.

As it is there are only 4 seperate cursors (even if there are two sets), one for each corner. I don't see any combine diagonal cursors anywhere.

Otherwise this seems to work though.

There's no such "full" list. I don't think Qt uses the whole cursor set, so it needs some changes. There IS such bug and it shouldn't be closed.

He mentions some "fd_double_arrow" "bd_double_arrow". They are not in the standard cursor sets. This means that they're using their own specific cursors. I bet they're the corner cursors (but double ones). So they are in fact the same for opposite diagonals. I would consider this _is_ in fact a bug, since one cannot use the standard cursor set.


By the way, the "PATCH" does _not_ make such a change as "Fredrik Höglund" mentions. The only thing it does is ENABLE the QT_USE_APPROXIMATE_CURSORS which is existing already in qt-copy.
Why is it there otherwise???

This thing was already suggested in the qt-list, and is the ONLY method that has been announced so far publicly.

I cannot believe someone can close a bug with such a good explanation, without reading the comments.

Anyway, thanks to Uri for submitting the bug.

... enough trouble to mantain the pack on this site (lack of free time), ..... but as I said before, if anyone wants to take this cursor set, modify, and republish, you are free to do it. I'm not going to sue you :-)

My original idea wasn't to build the whole set of cursors. I just made this stuff for my own usage, and I have really little time to modify it.

For as long as I have been using xfree86 4.2.99.*, I have been annoyed with the fact that there was a mixture of curors (learning later that it was qt). Now this has been fixed....it looks so much more professional. For that I thank you. I like you cursor set very much, and you have done wonders for the KDE community.

One quick thing I noticed...it seems you have missed the point that goes from the left side. I think it's pointless and should just be a standard pointer anyways.

I don't really prefer you xterm icon, and haven't found any that I like more than the old xfree cursor-font one. I just find all of the new ones really intrusive when your just trying to type. But that's my own opinion, and it's quite easy to just delete that one and have it revert.

Thanks!

You mean the shadow that is cut in the left_side pointer? Yes, thanks, I noticed it earlier but I forgot to fix it. Same happens with the watch cursor... if it wasn't that it takes so long to redraw all the positions....

About the xterm cursor... I'm still thinking what to do with it. It works fine for bright backgrounds, but in dark ones doesn't look as nice I would say.

 Left Pointer

I thought I had logged in when I made that comment...guess not (not like it really matters, but I'd rather not post as anonymous).

Anyways, what I was trying to say is that my left poitner (the reverse of the standard pointer)actually didn't show up. It's not a huge ordeal to me, because it is used in very few places.

I find myself liking a very sinmple xterm xcursor because it is used in Word Processing programs, and when you type, etc. Having a colorful curors is kind of distracting to me.

Another thing I have noticed is that the hand become difficult to see on dark backgrounds. I like the pointer, but maybe some sort of outline or something in red so it can be seen on all backgrounds.

Oh....one quick question....is the watch replacement for KDE supposed to be animated (is that even possible). It looks like mine isn't.

Thanks again

Ok, I see which one you mean. the left pointer "left_ptr" is actually the standard one. The one missing is "right_ptr" which is the reverse. I'll do a quick hack and post it soon.

I've seen it in emacs for example...

>Having a colorful curors is kind of >distracting to me.

I had the intention of making a really simple cursor for xterm, but I don't seem to find one that fits with the theme. If anyone that has a suggestion I would appreciate it.

Another thing I have noticed is that the hand become difficult to see on dark backgrounds. I like the pointer, but maybe some sort of outline or something in red so it can be seen on all backgrounds.

It's meant to be, but not yet ;-) maybe this weekend.

At last and idea! Hopefully you like this version better. It's less intrusive, easily readable on both black and white backgrounds, (and it fits perfectly in the theme ;-) )

 What 'make'?

What make program are you using? Try to use "gmake" instead (gnu make).

I think this Makefile should be quite standard, but may require gnu make 3.72+ or sth like that.

Anyone else having the same problem (with gnu make)?

Argh! I tested and found the same problem with gnu make 3.79 in solaris.
I'll try to fix it for the next version. Midwhile, you can create the cursors one by one (sorry):

xcursorgen left_ptr.conf ../cursors/left_ptr

And so on

 $(eval ...)

 
 by uga on: Feb 13 2003

Ok, I found it.

My makefile uses the function $(eval ...) in order to "autoupdate" the makefile. I thought this was an older feature, but it was implemented in version 3.80 for the first time (Oct 2002). So in order to make it work correctly you need to update to GNU make 3.80. You are probably using GNU make 3.79 which was released on March 2000

Does anyone know how I can do the same thing without using the "eval" function?

If you don't have latest 'make' you can try this:

[hk@h55b123 Cursors]$ cd sources ; for i in `find . | egrep \.conf$`; do xcursorgen $i ../cursors/`basename $i .conf`; done;

'make install' works fine now

You gave me an idea actually. If I could somehow check the make version I could call a bash or shell script to build all the cursors in this way (independent from being changed or not). I'll fix it for the next version this way

Okay, I know this is a heated debate, but I do like the xterm cursor that is square and has the reddot line in the middle. Perhaps you could have xterm and xterm2 and then the user can choose which one to use. Just don't get rid of the square xterm cursor, I like it! I know that hand in many kits has hand1 and hand2, perhaps this could be the same.

 3 versions

Argh! ;-)

You have 3 different versions of the xterm in the package.

Get into 'Cursors/cursors/', and you'll find: xterm, xterm_old, xterm_old2

'xterm' is the last version
'xterm_old2' is the original square
'xterm_old' is the even older one

Copy any of this as 'xterm' to ~/.icons/default/cursors/

and you'll have it.


I don't know what I'm going to do with this cursor.... :-S

It's not the best in terms of visibility but still it's the most creative cursor-style I've ever seen and it's a lot more usable than many of these weird themes you have on windows.
