Description Mattias Bengtsson 2016-08-16 16:02:41 UTC
Currently we use the old X specific cursors HAND1 and FLEUR in GtkChamplainEmbed. The FLEUR cursor is for moving around and it looks like the "pointer" cursor, that is: the cursor you get when you move your mouse over a single-click action like a URL for example.

This is a bit confusing and does not look very good.

It would be great if we could move to the new cursors that you get from calling gdk_cursor_new_from_name(..) and use "grab" for when the cursor is not pressing and "grabbing" while you're dragging around the map.

Ok it seems like this actually should work just fine with using the old way of doing this, at least on X. What I was seeing was a bug in adwaita-icon-theme. 

So moving to the new way of doing this might not be needed or even in champlains interest.
