Is there a way to change my mouse cursor?
Am I able to change my mouse cursor to different shape and sizes or is a default setting?
Thanks!

Well, this IS possible BUT extremely hard. The cursors are located at /System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/A/Frameworks/HiService s.framework/Versions/A/Resources/cursors. But, their not like a windows cursor which are .curs. on mac, the cursors are .pdfs and, You can't edit them even with SIP Disabled.
Not really. Apple has determined that the mouse cursor is the way it is supposed to be and the user should not change it.
Thank you! As the user, I think I should be able to manipulate my environment to what is comfortable.

I totally agree.
Thank you, wjosten, for your reply. I checked out the App Store and previously looked at the app you sent. Unfortunately, it and the others are seem to be designed to "find" your cursor. In my situation, I am a graduate student and do heavy reading of digital textbooks. I also speed read which is challening since I don't have ready use of my finger to guide my eyes on the screen. I was hoping to change my cursor to a more "reader friendly" pointer. I will have to make do with my ScreenRuler from ClaroSoftware.
Thanks!
Thank you, Bimmer 7 Series. I will try altering the size and see if that helps. Best!

Yea, I took the Evelyn Speed Reading course way back when...
Exactly. Technology hasn't caught up to old school.
It never does....😎.
Not sure if anyone has answered this or is still interested, but I found this link on another form...
Sure it has! Check out Spritz! I'm just getting started with my first book but this is revolutionizing speed reading! Go progress!
That is incredibly frustrating for the user. Surprised that Apple does not give users the option to use the cursor they want. I hate the text cursor which keeps appearing in place of the arrow. I only want the old arrow pointer. And I do NOT want the cursor to keep changing shape!!
