Cursor display TINY when observed through RemoteDesktop #150

When I connect with Apple Remote Desktop to a Mac that has Mousecape installed the cursor in Remote Desktop is mostly invisible as it becomes a tiny do which is extremely hard to find on the the screen. Neither the displayed cursor size not its shape can be changed (e.g. by scaling in Mousecape prefs). However when the observed Mac is viewed on its directly connected display at the same time everything there is ok. When observing a Mac without Mousecape the black cursor is properly transported across. The observing Mac also has Mousecape installed, which is not a problem (cursor changes properly when entering/leaving the Remote Desktop window), only the observed Mac through Remote Desktop acts strange. Is this anything that can be fixed? Or is there a very simple way to temporarily disable Mousecape on the observed Mac without having to disable (launchctl unload -w)/logout/login?

Neither observing nor observed macOS version seems to be relevant, it happens with all versions of macOS (tested with varying combinations of el Capitan and Big Sur and anything in between).

Thanks for a great tool, I love it and couldn't do without
