Bug ID: 465228
Summary: Cursor center_ptr has incorrect hotspot location
Classification: Plasma
Product: Breeze
Version: 5.26.90
Platform: Debian stable
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal

center_ptr opened in RealWorld cursor editor, includng location of hotspot
The hotspot definition of the center_ptr cursor is not correct
***
Due to this, applications that require accurate clicking and are using this
cursor don't work as expected (e.g. image editing applications).
The attached screenshot of "RealWorld Cursor Editor" that has opened the
center_ptr cursor. It is very clear that the hotspot is not at the tip of the
arrow but a bit to the right.
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
The issue was first observed with a commercial application used to measure
distance between locations on a geographical map. The measurement points did
not end up where the user clicked the mouse, but a bit off. The incorrectness
of the hotspot was confirmed like this:
1. Copied the file /usr/share/icons/breeze_cursors/cursors/center_ptr to a
Windows machine
2. On Windows, open this file in "RealWorld Cursor Editor" with Xcur plugin
installed
(Any Xcur cursor editor that can visualize the hotspot could be used, I just
found this one.)
OBSERVED RESULT
Observe the cursor shape and the location of the hotspot: The hotspot is not at
the tip of the arrow but a bit to the right.
This applies to all three icons (3 different sizes) in the icon file.
EXPECTED RESULT
The hotspot should be at the tip of the arrow.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
