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.
My favorite thing to do while waiting for a game to load.
Also a clever way to react to the usual “where the fuck is the mouse” action people take which is to just shake the shit out of it till they see it. Love it.
It’s by design as mentioned in this bug report.
There is a hidden config to cap the over magnification on shake
[Effect-shakecursor] OverMagnification=0Its not really an easter egg as far as I can tell. From what I understand it’s used to find the curser easily, similar to wjndows’ control-to-find. It is a bit comical to how big it gets thigh

That’s the bit the OP was wondering about. Not the feature itself, but the fact that it’s apparently uncapped in terms of maximum size
"What? This motherfucker still cant see me? "
“…”
“YOU FUCKING GOT IT CHAMP. YOU WANT BIG? I GOT BIG!”
That’s fair, I guess I read that a little wrong
When I’m waiting for a long loading screen I’ll often just shake the cursor while I wait and see how big I can get it.
That’s what she said…?
It’s the modern answer to office toys.
Probably UINT32_MAX
The first time it happened to me, I was shocked. Now I am just entertained
How do you get it to shrink
I found it effective to think back to this time in high school bio where we had to dissect a frog. Gnarly and absolutely reeked of formaldehyde.
That would work
Think about unpleasant things and mood killers.
Nice Lol.
Once you hold it still for a second or two it returns to normal
Thank you

Sometimes it’s really hard to find
