appearance of mouse cursor in time line #107

Closed tutebatti closed 2 years ago

In Dorothea's Firefox, when filtering via the time line, instead of a grabbing hand grafik something like this grafik is shown.

We could simply change the info text, adding something like "(or a four-headed arrow)". Any thoughts, @mfranke93?

PS: I would like something like this: grafik ;D

I assume she is on Windows? See this Firefox bug: The "grabbing hand" (move) cursor is the one that should be shown, but on Windows Firefox, the all-scroll cursor is shown instead.

I would highly discourage changing anything about the cursors themselves. Although possible, it might make the icons used less familiar for most visitors. I don't think many visitors will use the combination of Firefox + Windows (FF has a market share of under 8% on desktop according to Wikipedia, not all of these will be on Windows), but if you feel it is necessary you can change the text accordingly.

So this bug is 18 years old? :D Anyway, thanks for clarification. I will suggest an addition in the info text in parentheses.
