Most comfortable AND practical cursor size for me seems to be midway between MAX and MIN. I like a minimum of 12 point text (14 is better) but some text is provided as an image in small type (useless) and many times editors allow 10 or even 8 point text. I don't want or need high contrast, I will not use flashing text, It would be nice to receive consideration and have this nightmare solved.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me.

For Windows users I may suggest tools and advice from the following site, and It may also be possible to get advice relating to Mac over there.

I know in Windows cursor size and features can be modified from the Windows control panel. It may be worth trying to ask on Mac sites to see it thy can help you.

Regarding modifying text of the browsers webpage content possibly the addon no squint would help you. Or for even higher customisation consider grease monkey scripts

I do not know if there may already be a suitable add-on for modifying the cursor to meet your requirements you could wade through this listing

Thank you, Sir. My problem, which I have failed to outline correctly, is neither TEXT SIZE nor CURSOR SIZE. It is a combination of BOTH of these used together when providing ToolTips. I know how to enlarge both text and cursor sizes in OS X and WIN and how to provide myself with adequately sized text when using Safari or Firefox. It is when I need guidance on some aspect of what I'm doing or if I want to know what a specific icon represents that the ToolTip text appears (very nicely) but is covered by the larger sized cursor that I like to use. Hope that clarifies my problem more. Thanks again for your help. Regards MJ

I do not use a Mac but this tutorial possibly allows you to create a screenshot that includes tooltips, but has the option of not showing the cursor.
