About Action Cursor for Google Docs
Short Description:
Animated smear cursor for Google Docs.
Detailed Description:
Ever seen that smooth cursor trail in Neovide? This brings that effect to Google Docs.
What you get:
- A cursor that smears as you type (choose from 5 presets: minimal, subtle, default, dramatic, or insane)
- Colored particles that burst out as you move
- A glow effect on your cursor (and selection)
- Full dark mode with separate document invert option
- Customize colors, glow, particles—basically everything
- Zoom-aware so it looks right at any zoom level
- To disable screen shake on large jumps, change preset to minimal or subtle.
Quick setup:
Click the extension icon in your toolbar, pick a preset, tweak colors if you want. That's it. Settings save automatically.
The whole thing is optimized to not slow down your typing. Uses canvas caching and throttled DOM queries so it's smooth even with all the effects.
Privacy: Just stores your settings locally. No tracking, no data collection.
Works on all Google Docs. Enjoy the smooth cursor.
