finally a use for xeyes?
- ndiddy 2y agoI don't use vanilla xeyes but I use the Window Maker dockapp version (https://bstern.org/wmeyes/ https://bstern.org/wmeyes/) to make it easier to find my cursor on the screen.
- shrimp_emoji 2y agoHa. KDE 6 has something like if you jiggle the cursor a certain way, it temporarily grows larger. Better than Windows's function of "hide all my windows"...
- whalesalad 2y agoI think every OS has this feature. Sometimes it is hidden in an accessibility menu and needs to be turned on.
- BrandoElFollito 2y agoPressing some key a few times in Windows highlights your cursor. I just can't remember what it was (Ctrl I think)
- jacekm 2y agoYup, Ctrl twice.
- mkl 2y agoOnce works. It's an option you have to turn on: Settings > Mouse > Additional mouse options > Show location of pointer when I press the CTRL key.
- BrandoElFollito 2y agoOh thank you thank you. I moved to Windows 11 and the feature disappeared - it is right where your path points to.
- lagniappe 2y agoI always run xeyes in any net-enabled gui. iykyk.
