The cursor is extremely small on 3k and 4k resolution display making it impossible to use skills and right click accurately since it blends in with the skill effects etc. during team fights. It’s a lot bigger in Dota 2 Source 1.

Can you post your Steam system info? Cursor scaling should work on Windows, mostly on Linux and not on OSX.

Above is the example of how small the cursor is. I don’t know why it says below in the Steam system info that my resolution is 1440×810 because it is actually 2880×1620 and I’m using 200% scaling for texts, apps, etc in Windows display settings to increase my text size.

It’s possible Steam isn’t marked as DPI-aware so Windows is lying to Steam. Does Reborn show the proper monitor resolution in the video settings?

As this isn’t a Mac or Linux issue this should go in the regular forums. I’ll leave it open for a bit to gather info.

I couldn’t find a forum on github for the regular Dota 2 Reborn. I tried registering for the forum on dev. dota2.com and it gives me a “database error” and trying to sign in with that account, the system says I’d been banned for “No specified reason”. Is it possible for you to pass on this information to the Windows team as Reborn is going to be the main client in a few weeks and this issue is really important to a lot of people with high dpi screens?

I’d like a review of this issue, since I have a linux machine with 2880×1620 res and the cursor is the size of the head of a ranged creep, just like image posted already.
In fact, the cursor shown throughout the UI is bigger than that shown ingame for some reason.
