Larger Mouse Pointer?

Dittp, I have no peripheral vision in real life and evolved a habit of flicking my mouse cursor to a corner of the screen and looking at that corner to locate it again.

Also some kind of plain black or plain white cursor would be helpful. I never got started on Overwatch because the tiny bright cursor on the bright background made it all but impossible to even start.

My company sent me a new laptop with a touchscreen monitor a few months back and it was liberating to jab my screen and to hell with the mouse pointer. Fortunately I could keybind most of warcraft and just need mouse for clicking on mailboxes and quest thingies for the most part.

I use to have issues with ā€œmisplacingā€ my mouse pointer as well. Then I saw a youtube video by Jedith where he was using a Weak Aura to put a small circle around his pointer making it easier to keep track of. Helped me a ton!

This reminds me, thereā€™s programs out there to change game cursors

but I donā€™t know if Blizz would frown upon that or not

DMouse is nice too! The cross/hairpin setting on alpha 30% offers a neat take on precision clicking.

I never knew this existed. I had to get a cursorTrail addon cause I kept losing my mouse pointer. Thanks for that added info. :+1:

I fnd cursor trail can get a little messy. I prefer mouse sonar. It can stick a big circle on your cursor to make it a lot easier to see when in combat etc. Itā€™s a lot cleaner than cursor trail.

Thank yo so much Kaurmine for this cursor fix to make it larger in gameā€¦

You donā€™t need any addon for this.

Hit escape, go to options, hit general under accessibility.

In there, youā€™ll find cursor size. Crank that sucker up!

I did this an no longer lose my mouse :slight_smile:

And still relevant information.

And your point is what Jalanili that I told the player thank you after I found the info he had posted ā€¦a year agoā€¦boy are you narrow mindedā€¦I always thank whomever helps me with info for the gameā€¦

The cursor is still hard to see sometimes even if you have enlarged it. I still use cursor trail.

Thank you Murdercarpetā€¦Iā€™ll try this larger size if that doesnā€™t help Iā€™ll try out Cursor tailā€¦I try to keep my addonā€™s too a mimā€¦

Cursor trail.

I was confused at first because people were talking about the issue like the Accessibility options for the mouse cursor resizing didnā€™t exist and were offering alternate solutions. Saw it was from a year ago, wondered why it was necroā€™d for a thanks for information thatā€™s no longer accurate.

Youā€™re not doing anyone any favors by bumping old info that no longer applies.
