Cursor Trail – so fun yet practical! 🥳 Any config recommendations?

[jasonshanks]

Just wanted to throw out there, been really enjoying the cursor trail new feature today. What a pleasant surprise 😃

At this point I've just:
cursor_trail = 1

Has anyone done anything more adventurous they want to share?

Thanks again!

Yes, cursor trail is totally unnecessary but somewhat cool and eye candy must have feature. I love it! Great work!
My settings:

cursor_trail 3
cursor_trail_decay 0.1 0.4

Not leaving kitty for a day or two...

What does the cursor_trail_decay do?

@prathmesh-ka-github

Controls the decay times for the cursor trail effect when the cursor_trail
is enabled. This option accepts two positive float values specifying the
fastest and slowest decay times in seconds. The first value corresponds to the
fastest decay time (minimum), and the second value corresponds to the slowest
decay time (maximum). The second value must be equal to or greater than the
first value. Smaller values result in a faster decay of the cursor trail.
Adjust these values to control how quickly the cursor trail fades away.
