Sure. The main reason I didn't do it yet is that it isn't clear to me what should be shown. Other than that it's just a matter of changing the corresponding .xpm and adding a small line with tool's "preference url" to its TOOL-context.cpp (in the init function, see rect-context.cpp for example, if you want to do it yourself).
Hi everyone! Jasper, I have just tried a build with the implemented cursor-color indicator. Nice work! ;) Considering Mr. Engelen's question, how about this? (please check out the attachment)
xpm can support transparency, but not levels of transparency, if I am not mistaken. Before, I was goofing around with the GIMP UI and replaced the tool icons and cursors in with SVG files. And those icons looked really cool and smooth! ;) So, I wanted to ask... or suggest... Can we do the same in Inkscape and use svg instead xpm? While still using the tool-cursor-color indicators, of course ;)...
