Cursor
Support for cursor color inverting
Previously, the Citrix Workspace app displayed a dotted cursor that appeared the same in color to the black and white background of a text. As a result, it was difficult to locate the position of the cursor.
Starting with version 2112, the cursor color inverts based on the background color of a text. As a result, you can easily locate the position of the cursor in the text. By default, this feature is disabled.
Prerequisites:
-
If
.ICAClientis already present in the home folder of the current user:Delete
All_Regions.inifileOr,
To retain the
All_Regions.inifile, add the following lines at the end of the [Virtual Channels\Thinwire Graphics] section:InvertCursorEnabled=
InvertCursorRefreshRate=
InvertCursorMode=
If the .ICAClient folder is not present then it indicates a fresh install of the Citrix Workspace app. In that case, the default setting for the feature is retained.
To enable this feature, do the following:
- Navigate to the
$HOME/.ICAClient/wfclient.iniconfiguration file. -
Go to the [Thinwire3.0] section and set the following entry:
InvertCursorEnabled=True
Note:
The cursor does not invert when the value for the Use video codec for compression policy in Citrix Studio is set to
Do not use video codec.
Support for 32-bit cursor
Previously, when you were using the custom 32-bit cursor, a black box might appear around the cursor.
Starting with Citrix Workspace app for Linux version 2212, support for the 32-bit cursor was enabled by default. As a result, the black box around the cursor issue is resolved.
Starting with Citrix Workspace app for Linux version 2309, you can disable the support for the 32-bit cursor. For this enhancement, a new parameter named Cursor32bitSupport is added in the wfclient.ini file.
To disable support for the 32-bit cursor, do the following:
- Navigate to the
$HOME/.ICAClient/wfclient.iniconfiguration file. -
Go to the [Thinwire3.0] section and set the following entry:
Cursor32bitSupport=False <!--NeedCopy-->
