Location of Mouse Pointer Icons?

[AllTheButtons]

Where are the pictures Logic uses for its mouse pointer icons stored these days? I'm sure it used to be inside the Logic application package (contents/resources/images or something similar) but I can't find them now.

Did you look under /Content/Frameworks/ ? There are tons of GUI resources in there.

Yes you're right! In particular most of the mouse pointers are in Contents > Frameworks > MAResources.Framework > Versions A > Resources. Thanks!

Great! You’re welcome, thanks for the precise location. What are you doing? Are you customizing some of the tools?

I use them to make Stream Deck icons (along with Apple's free SF Symbols app, Stream Deck's own icon creator, and Pixelmator).

Oh that's very cool, great idea.

I've spent far more time than is healthy making my stream deck look pretty 🤣

Someday all computer keyboards will work like this...

That looks great. And apparently there are some very useful shortcuts there. Does Stream Deck allow you to perform macros?

The stream deck itself lets you do basic stuff like chain together key commands (and there are plugins for things like hue lights etc). But the real magic comes with Keyboard Maestro integration. And then inside that you can also call applescripts for real macro inception!

On the 'main page' for example, I've got:

• multi-scissors tool toggle, using a keyboard maestro macro (that someone on their forums was kind enough to make for me when I couldn't work it out). Allows me to use the Marquee for most scissors stuff (multi-scissors being the only thing the Marquee can't do).
• Audio region gain change, which I think uses an AppleScript I found on an old post on this forum!
• Buttons to change fade of audio regions. Uses a KM macro to changes the colours of the fade buttons so you know which length is selected before pressing the fade type, at which point it does an AppleScript to change the fade value.
• Region colour change shortcuts (opens the colour window, clicks the right colour with the mouse, closes the colour window, and instantly puts the mouse back where it was).

The rest are just keyboard shortcuts straight from the stream deck, positioned so that things I often use in quick succession are placed close together, e.g. for my comping workflow.
