I find this hilarious. Is this an easter egg? When shaking my mouse cursor, I can get it to take up the whole screens height.
This is KDE Plasma 6.
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
It has replaced idly making selection squares on the desktop.
Note: Only on Plasma 6.0 (edit: and up)
Nope, still functional as of Plasma 6.2.3 :)
I thought they meant “Not if you are still on Plasma 5” but maybe I misinterpreted it.
Correct. 6.0 is when it was introduced.
I keep trying it on 5 and then remembering and being sad.Ah sorry, I thought you meant that it was a bug introduced in 6.0 that was fixed or something
No worries. Updated for clarity.
time for those groups of right lower-arm muscles to get their well-deserved spot in the limelight, lads 😎
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.
"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"
Ahh another sophisticated LetsGameItOut enjoyer. Right on. :D

My kids love making the cursor fill the screen.
Feature moment
I hope it’s never changed, absolutely fabulous
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.
Can confirm!
I love this feature so much.
I do this for fun while waiting for things to load
You just have to turn it off. It’s an accessibility feature if you don’t want it:
