            Bug ID: 141828
           Summary: KF5 VCL PLUGIN: wrong cursor for handle of
                    configurable shapes
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.1.2.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Draw
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: sergio.callegari at gmail.com

Description:
When positioning the cursor on the extra handles of configurable shapes (such
as brackets, rectangles with rounded corners, etc.), the cursor changes.

In the gtk3 VCL it changes to a hand with a pointing finger, where the "target"
is at the end of the finger, so that the "pointing" ability of the cursor is
retained.

In the KF5 VCL it changes to an open hand, where the target is exactly behind
the hand. This removes any "pointing ability" and makes the cursor hardly
suited for controlling the handle, because to control it you need to position
the open hand so that it completely covers the handle.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open draw, insert a shape with an extra handle (for instance the { shape
from the symbol shapes palette).
2. Try to reach one of the the handles controlling the shape properties

Actual Results:
In the KF5 VCL the cursor changes to an open hand. To move the handle you need
to cover it completely, and this makes it hard to see how you move the handle.

Expected Results:
The cursor should change into a hand with a pointing finger. To move the handle
you should need to put only the edge of the finger onto the handle (which is
small enough not to cover it completely). In this way when you move the handle
you can see where you move it.


Reproducible: Always
