Replace Cursor
Replace mouse cursor with a custom one.
自定义包括鼠标指针、触控点在内的各种图片资源。
Note: You can use Magisk + RRO for better experience.
See magisk folder for more information.
(be aware of SELinux context, btw.)
How to use / 用法
Tested on: Android 10 (AOSP), Android 12 (MIUI 13)
- Select
System framework(package name may beandroidorsystemor empty, see this) in module scope and activate the module - Force stop module
- Add resources to change. Please make sure that image sizes are bigger than hotspot (cursor left-top corner / touch point), otherwise nothing will show.
- Reboot (you MUST reboot when you modify anything, or changes will not be applied until next reboot)
- Reverse engineer
/system/framework/framework-res.apkto find out the resource ID of the cursor you want to replace.
For MiPad users, install MaxMiPad and enable No Magic Pointer.
If you have Windows-style .ani cursors, you can use ani2png to convert them.
For example, use ls -a *.ani | xargs -L1 ani2png to convert all .ani files in current directory to .png files.
Common resources / 常用资源
From MIUI 13, Android 12.
| Resource ID | Description | HotSpot |
|---|---|---|
| pointer_spot_touch | Touch point | (22, 22) |
| pointer_arrow | Mouse Pointer (Arrow) | (5, 5) |
| pointer_hand | Mouse Pointer (Hand, for example when hover on sth. clickable) | (9, 4) |
| pointer_text | Mouse Pointer (Looks like |， for editing vertical text input) |
(12, 12) |
Please note that the images may be scaled. See Android 加载 drawable 中图片后自动缩放的原理 and Android drawable微技巧，你所不知道的drawable的那些细节 and getResources().getDisplayMetrics().density 的理解 for more informaton. In my case, 360x360 on a xhdpi device becomes 135x135 (360 * (240 / 320) / 2 = 135, not sure). You may need to manually adjust size & padding (border) to fit size & hotspot.
Mouse-related resource-id may have a _large suffix, used when Accessibility -> Large mouse pointer(大号鼠标指针) is enabled.

TODO
Currently, this module use SharedPreferences to store images, which is really shitty. Anyone is free to improve this module.
Also, I am too low to modify hotspot using Xposed. If you know how to do this, please tell me.
Also: Origin image resolution, disable scaling.
