Linux pause menu cursor buggy

Running under arch on i3, the pause menu cursor is comically large. It covers about 1/4 of the screen, and flickers (which hurts my eyeballs :frown:). Also the cursor doesn't change to this until you activate something that changes its state

Developer

Oh dear. I had read comments about the size but I didn't realise it was THAT bad. I have no clue why the cursor size should be different on Linux. I don't suppose you could you post a screenshot of it so I know exactly how extreme the problem is?

By "activate something that changes its state" do you mean resizing the menu for example?

Yes, resizing the menu.

ok, here it is

it was much bigger in my head

This may just be jank with linux display managers - it's worth noting I am running i3 without a compositor, i.e. without something that handles window transparency. However this shouldn't affect the cursor.

Developer

Wow, no, that's absolutely ridiculous ahaha! I wonder if it's just defaulting to the image's actual resolution for some reason, looks like it could be.

Thanks for sharing that!

Can confirm latest update fixes cursor issue

Developer

Sweet! Even the flickering?

Yep.
