Description drhowarddrfine 2017-03-18 17:11:01 UTC 
I can't remember what it's called but it's the finger pointing hand that shows on all links on web pages. I don't recall where to check to change the default, assuming that's still possible.

Sorry. I mean the mouse cursor.
Comment 2 Carlos J. Puga Medina freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2017-03-18 17:54:23 UTC 
The mouse cursor displayed in chromium is the same as the one from the system-wide cursor theme. So try to change the GTK cursor theme in Settings -> Appearance -> Use GTK+ theme.

Comment 3 drhowarddrfine 2017-03-18 21:25:26 UTC 
I went to Settings->Appearance and clicked on "Use GTK+ theme" to no effect. I closed and re-opened the browser which did not change either.
Comment 4 drhowarddrfine 2017-03-18 21:46:11 UTC 
After writing my last comment, I think I know now what you are saying. I believe you are saying that Chromium will now follow user system styles instead of its own. Since I have my mouse system cursor set as the "finger point" that is now what I get instead of what I had all those years before. What I now need to do is find how to set my system cursor to something else.

Or can this be changed in GTK? I don't know.

(In reply to drhowarddrfine from comment #4)

IIRC chromium uses /usr/local/share/icons/default/index.theme

Does the problem still exist?
