From b4189dbf805c297fdd6dd228ffab673d44560bcd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Phil Dennis-Jordan Date: Mon, 24 Jun 2024 12:10:40 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Cursor: 8 -> 1 bit alpha downsampling improvement MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Mouse cursors with 8 bit alpha were downsampled to 1-bit opacity maps by turning alpha values of 255 into 1 and everything else into 0. This means that mostly-opaque pixels ended up completely invisible. This patch changes the behaviour so that only pixels with less than 50% alpha (0-127) are treated as transparent when converted to 1-bit alpha. This greatly improves the subjective appearance of anti-aliased mouse cursors, such as those used by macOS, when using a front-end UI without support for alpha-blended cursors, such as some VNC clients.
