Hi Cesare,
Thank you for keeping an eye on this thread and the one you added on ElevenForum. I wasn't fully away, still looked at the news and stuff.
There aren't any cursor plans at the moment. All the ones released here work on Windows 11 since the same specs still apply.
Should there be any new cursor-related discovery on Windows 11 or some new theme idea, I'd be glad to post it.
@Hopachi
That is good news that all the Windows 10 cursors work in the same way for Windows 11. Good for you that there are no plans to make cursors for Windows 11. I do not think that Microsoft would ever add any more cursor roles to Windows 10, nor 11 because there are currently 17 cursor roles in a full set, which is a lot already.
Please Hopachi can you now close and archive this forum because there are no new cursors additions being added here.
Thank you.
@Cesare
Interesting point about the roles.
Who knows, maybe they'll add more cursor roles in the future, in a new Windows version that is.
I never expected that Win10 got the two extra roles in the first place. Those are mostly app-based.
If you look at Linux, there are way more cursor roles available, just for comparison.
You could add some extras, like drag 'n' drop role that is also mostlyhandled'dressed' by apps for instance.
Regarding the thread:
It has been a while since the thread is already marked as solved ;-)

GIMP 2.99.12 (development version) introduces ANI-format.

Importing and exporting of animated cursors should be possible.
Now that's something interesting to try out.
@Hopachi
I believe that Windows 10 and 11 are fine as they are so there are no needs for Microsoft to add more cursor roles. Linux is another operating system, so it may need more cursor roles, but Windows 10 and 11 does not need any more cursor roles. We have more than enough cursor roles with the current 17 cursor roles which Windows 10 and 11 offers now.
Regarding this thread:
I am aware that this thread is marked as solved but it would be a good idea if a feature for the creator of this thread, (the one who composed it) would be allowed to lock it using a thread lock feature so that users could no longer post on it, but only read it. At the bottom of the thread, a notification would say that the thread is locked to modification.
GIMP:
Thank you so much Hopachi for the link to the new animated cursor features for GIMP. Just to let you know, I no longer use GIMP because I find this software very difficult to use to make cursors. I only use "RealWorld Cursor Editor" to create cursor sets. I also asked Vlasta, the developer behind the making of RealWorld Cursor Editor, to add all the missing cursor roles to this software when updating it to a new version suitable for today's cursor design abilities.
I recolored some more "enhanced" Binary cursors. Two are inspired by Hopachi's LLX cursors and one comes in pale violet, sharing the edge color with the Genesis set. The rest's the same as in the previous sets posted here by me.
I really don't see why this thread should be locked at all, as you can see @Cesare, 10Forums is still active. As such there is no profit in locking this thread unless all files posted here are migrated to 11Forums, for those who don't have an account here but do there. You have expressed a wish that no cursor sets that have been posted here should be posted in your cursor thread at 11Forums.
The three re-colored versions of the Binary series is amazingly cool. I like the new colors.
One thing that I would like to know is that, "Will Windows 11 have any new cursor roles in the future"?
It has also been a while since I have posted a comment here on this forum.
