The colors, Duke! Courtesy of the MS Office color theme, ‘Slipspace’. On a black background the cursor renders pure white. On a white document, the cursor is stark black. But in almost every case inverse=contrast holds true. Okay fine, this isn’t literally true since gray value #7F7F7F (aka 127,127,127) is its own inverse. Using inverted color means your cursor’s contrast to its background is as high as possible. Most of the time if the pointer is hard to see it’s just lost in a field of snow-white websites and documents. You don’t have to find your pointer if you never lose it. My Favorite: Inverted Cursor Scheme (xor cursor)
Judging by how many ways they’ve come up with to solve it, I guess Microsoft believes everyone has a hard time finding their mouse pointer on their big giant displays these days.
