- # 29647
Steps to reproduce the issue
Enable System - Additional Accessibility Features Plugin in Joomla 4.0.0 beta 1
configure the plugin to load on the frontend
Load the frontend
Expected result
it works as designed?
Actual result
click the icon to open the menu
Click "Big Cursor" - note the cursor changes
move the mouse to the webpage as you would, to navigate - note that the cursor size reduces to normal again
FRONTEND:
Seems if you move slowly the big cursor is never invoked, and sometimes after you have moved, the cursor stays large, and sometimes it reduces in size again
ADMIN CONSOLE:
The big cursor is always big regardless of movement or location = expected
System information (as much as possible)
tested on Mac - Safari and google chrome

This is an upstream library see https://github.com/ranbuch/accessibility
yes a library last released 4 Oct 2016 - its last release only predates my first Joomla 4 logged issue in this tracker by 1 month...
Maybe if the Joomla project's flagship release with accessibility features is going to rely on it, then the Joomla project might want to fork it?
Checking their project the last commit 16 days ago was "fix vulnerabilities"...
Joomla 4 beta 1 states
{
"name": "accessibility",
"type": "script",
"uri": "vendor/accessibility/accessibility.min.js",
"attributes": {
"defer": true
},
"package": "accessibility",
"version": "3.0.9"
}However there is no such version 3.0.9 released here https://github.com/ranbuch/accessibility/releases
so im as confused as the fish on the floor at the restaurant at the end of the universe.
Ah I see 3.0.9 is from the npm eco system... https://www.npmjs.com/package/accessibility oh well

ok I think I have worked out the cursor issue on frontend...
First lets look at Reading Guide - note that the green/black line can show ANYWHERE on the default page see:
However the Big Cursor is limited to the html tag with class
_access_cursorwhich DOESNT cover the whole (huge 27" iMac) screen by defaultSo the cursor should work anywhere in the browser window like the reading guide - and it doesnt.
