Base: Cursor top-left is at center #9676

Comparing cursor select between SerenityOS, Windows and Linux.

User experience degradation due to top-left of mouse cursor is now at center. Previous behavior was similar to Windows and Linux.

Mouse select and/or mouse click and drag inaccuracy is evident once one is aware of this "new" behavior.

Huh I have never seen this. How do you make this happen?

Happy to report that:

f727dc3 MouseSettings: Tweak UI layout of cursor themes... - awesomekling

and applying resets the mouse to the 'proper' settings.

Closing this issue.

Thanks much @awesomekling ! :^)
