Hi, the figma cursor used to be small and neat. In the past few days it has suddenly grown much bigger and it glitches in the middle of work switching back to the original smaller size, and growing again when moved or used for an action. Any idea why this is happening?

Hey everyone, thanks so much for flagging this! 

We’ve seen several reports of this happening in Firefox, and the team has now rolled out a fix. Refreshing your tab should apply it, and your cursor + mouse interactions should return to normal.

 

 

If you’re still seeing this after a refresh or if you’re running into it on a different browser, let me know your browser and version and I’ll take a closer look with you.

Hey both, thanks for calling this out! 

Could you share which Firefox version you’re using, along with your Linux OS version? That’ll help us report this properly to the team and investigate what might have changed.

In the meantime, as a workaround, you could try using Chrome or Edge, or switch to the Figma Desktop app while this gets looked into.

Hey everyone, I see you’re all hitting this with the same setup!

I’ve passed these details along to the team so they can investigate what’s going on here.

Really appreciate your patience while we dig into this. I’ll share an update here as soon as I hear back!

Issue is persistent on android tablets. It is due to Figma using a custom cursor, other applications that keeps the system cursor works just fine.

 

Checked all settings, page zoom default. Desktop web page mode. Accessibility settings disabled. Everything checked,

 

A perfect solution would be if Figma had a settings to use system cursor and not custom ones. It could be on by default, and us that works on tablets could opt out and keep the system cursor and miss out on some of the features custom cursor come with.
