Hi,

I have a problem with cursor loaded from images, the image is not set properly.
Here is the image:

and here is the cursor:

Even a 10x10 black square image has display problems.

Here is my code:

if (selectedTool == _toolsMap[sf::Keyboard::B]) {
	_mouseCursorImage->loadFromFile("./assets/cursors/brush.png");
} else if (selectedTool == _toolsMap[sf::Keyboard::E]) {	
	_mouseCursorImage->loadFromFile("./assets/cursors/eraser.png");
} else if (selectedTool == _toolsMap[sf::Keyboard::F]) {
	_mouseCursorImage->loadFromFile("./assets/cursors/bucket.png");
} else if (selectedTool == _toolsMap[sf::Keyboard::S]) {
	_mouseCursorImage->loadFromFile("./assets/cursors/select.png");
}
_mouseCursor->loadFromPixels(_mouseCursorImage->getPixelsPtr(), _mouseCursorImage->getSize(), sf::Vector2u(0, 0));
_editingWindow->setMouseCursor(*_mouseCursor);

Can you please send the source images ?
Do you know why I have this problem ?

Thanks,

What OS are you using? Seems to work fine for me.

What OS are you using?

I'm on fedora 30.

I also found a post on the SFML forum of someone who seems to have the same issue.
