Can someone advise me on how to make my Workbench pointer larger?

[garyg]

the cursor is becoming harder to see as I get older.

I went to the Pointer prefs but I don't see a way to increase the
size of the Workbench pointer (cursor). I'm not looking to change
the appearance of the pointer, just make it larger.

Thanks in advance,
Gary

what is your resolution and your AmigaOS version ?

I'm running OS 3.9
I don't know my resolution offhand but I have a Picasso IV card
and Picasso 96, so it is a high resolution

Go to Prefs then Screenmode. It will tell you there if it’s 640x480, 800x600 etc…

You can try the bigsprite tooltype on the monitor in devs, remove brackets:
BIGSPRITE=Yes

Thanks, I'll try it

Curiously, the pointer (cursory) has not changed in Workbench and Diskmaster
but in Bar&Pipes Professional it did! Perhaps this is because the default
pointer in B&P Pro is a saxophone (the founding President was a sax player),
so I've always changed it to the Workbench pointer option, but I don't know
why the larger pointer is not displayed when I'm in Workbench.
