unvisible mouse cursor on specific backgrounds

Description

The mouse cursor of some tools (for instance: node, move, line offset, delete part, delete ring, rotate, simplify) is not visible, if the layersymbolcolor is exactly the color of the cursor. That makes some edit actions not possible. There are better cursors like the cursor for create or split feature. This Cursor is robust against the backgrounds. It would be very kind, if anybody could fix this for the 3.4.7 LTR.

Thanks!

Jan

Some more details:

  • It seems: that only on Windows AND the specific Cross-Cursor is the problem
  • On Windows the specific Cross-Cursor has only the fill color near RGB 127,127,127 there is no outline color
  • On Ubuntu the specific Cross-Cursor has white fill color AND a grey/black outline color (qgis-cross-cursor-ubuntu.gif)
