There doesn't appear to be a limit to the maximum size the KDE cursor can get when you shake it.

"Time for my favourite game, is there a limit?

--several hours later --

if there is I couldn't find it but check out my frame rate now"

It has replaced idly making selection squares on the desktop.

I hope it’s never changed, absolutely fabulous

I love this feature so much.

My kids love making the cursor fill the screen.

Managed to get it to fill a whole 1200x1920 (not a typo, screen is sideways) screen without shrinking once. It is always fun to do.

This might get me to try KDE lol. I’ve used this feature on my Mac for years just when I get bored in meetings and I’ve always wanted it to grow to that size.

Note: Only on Plasma 6.0 (edit: and up)

i hope someone working on KDE sees this and says "well this is unacceptable. we have to figure out why this is causing so much frame lag" and the ability to enhugen your cursor remains forever.

It’s not big enough until the window manager crashes

I do this for fun while waiting for things to load

Ha I also noticed this in the last week and assumed it was a feature, not a bug

No, I don't think it is an easter egg. Probably just a missing check in code that needed to be done.

I've made it span my 2 monitors. It's funny. Best feature yet.

The cursor used to appear pixelated at high magnifications until they switched to it a vector to fix it, so definitely intentional

An interesting side effect for mouse jiggler attacks

That's my wife's default cursor size

Feels like a feature. The first time I tested this feature it was first: not dynamically textured, meaning that a small 32x32 pixel imagine got 256x256 or smth. And the size was limited.

Now its actually rendered like a vector graphics and funnily enough, its shaking never stops increasing the size. I love when fun is allowed on your desktop

Can confirm!

You just have to turn it off. It's an accessibility feature if you don't want it:

thanks. I was trying to find this out but I'd constantly slip up and let it shrink.

Thank you for doing the science for us. That was entertaining

time for those groups of right lower-arm muscles to get their well-deserved spot in the limelight, lads 😎
