**OR** follow these steps:
1. Go to **Registry Editor** by typing the same in the _start search box_.
2. Expand `HKEY_CURRENT_USER` folder and expand `Control Panel` folder.
3. Go to `Cursors` folder and click on `Schemes` folder - all the available custom cursors that are
installed will be listed here.
4. **Right Click** on the name of cursor file you want to uninstall; for eg.: _Bibata Cursors_ and
click `Delete`.
5. Click '**yes**' when prompted.
## Build From Source
#### Notes
- Bibata build configuration and cursor hotspot settings are bundled in the `build.toml` file.
- Check out the scripts section in [package.json](./package.json) to see how we build the cursor theme,
excluding the render scripts. They are useful for converting `.svg` files to `.png` files.
- yarn is optional, For building XCursors and Windows cursors from `.png` files or resizing them
you don't need that. If you want to develop/modify Bibata's colors, and bitmaps, or generate a png
file from a svg, Then you can use yarn because bitmapper is written in TypeScript.
- Since Bibata Modern and Bibata Original are designed similarly, they share the same hotspot settings so a
single configuration file `build.toml` is responsible for building all variants. Due to this, you will have
to change the following options in `ctgen` to build the appropriate variant:
- **-d**: bitmaps directory
- **-n**: The name you want to give to the generated theme.
- **-c**: Theme comment.
- See `ctgen --help` for all available options.
### Build prerequisites
- Python version 3.7 or higher
- [clickgen](https://github.com/ful1e5/clickgen)>=2.1.1 (`pip install clickgen`)
- [yarn](https://github.com/yarnpkg/yarn)
### Quick start
1. Install [build prerequisites](#build-prerequisites) on your system
2. `git clone https://github.com/ful1e5/Bibata_Cursor`
3. `cd Bibata_Cursor && yarn build`
4. See [Installing Bibata Cursor](#installing-bibata-cursor).
### Building
> **Note**
> Bitmaps are already generated in the `bitmaps` directory and **managed by the maintainer**
> (do not edit them directly).
First make sure you installed the [build prerequisites](#build-prerequisites).
Now that you have the dependencies, you can try build individual themes from bitmaps and
customize sizes, target platform, and etc. with the `ctgen` CLI (packed with `clickgen`).
#### `yarn build` aberration
Here are the default commands we used to build the Bibata's variants and packed them into `yarn build`:
```bash
ctgen build.toml -d 'bitmaps/Bibata-Modern-Amber' -n 'Bibata-Modern-Amber' -c 'Yellowish and rounded edge bibata cursors.'
ctgen build.toml -d 'bitmaps/Bibata-Modern-Classic' -n 'Bibata-Modern-Classic' -c 'Black and rounded edge Bibata cursors.'
ctgen build.toml -d 'bitmaps/Bibata-Modern-Ice' -n 'Bibata-Modern-Ice' -c 'White and rounded edge Bibata cursors.'
ctgen build.toml -d 'bitmaps/Bibata-Original-Amber' -n 'Bibata-Original-Amber' -c 'Yellowish and sharp edge Bibata cursors.'
ctgen build.toml -d 'bitmaps/Bibata-Original-Classic' -n 'Bibata-Original-Classic' -c 'Black and sharp edge Bibata cursors.'
ctgen build.toml -d 'bitmaps/Bibata-Original-Ice' -n 'Bibata-Original-Ice' -c 'White and sharp edge Bibata cursors.'
```
Afterwards, the themes can be found in the `themes` directory.
#### Customize Sizes
> **Note**
> You can change the cursor size up to 200 because pngs are rendered with 200x200.
> If the cursor is resized by more than rendered png size, the final cursor will be blurred.
##### Customize Windows Cursor size
To build Windows cursor with size `16`:
> **Warning**
> Windows cursor supports only one size, if multiple sizes are given with `-s` the first size will
> be considered in build.
```bash
ctgen build.toml -s 16 -p windows -d 'bitmaps/Bibata-Modern-Ice' -n 'Bibata-Modern-Ice' -c 'White and rounded egde bibata cusors with size 16'
```
You can also customize output directory with `-o` option:
```bash
ctgen build.toml -s 16 -p windows -d 'bitmaps/Bibata-Modern-Ice' -o 'out' -n 'Bibata-Modern-Ice' -c 'White and rounded egde Bibata cursors with size 16'
```
##### Customize XCursor size
To build XCursor with size `16`:
```bash
ctgen build.toml -s 16 -p x11 -d 'bitmaps/Bibata-Modern-Ice' -n 'Bibata-Modern-Ice' -c 'White and rounded egde Bibata cursors with size 16'
```
You can also assign multiple sizes to `ctgen` for XCursors build:
```bash
ctgen build.toml -s 16 24 32 -p x11 -d 'bitmaps/Bibata-Modern-Ice' -n 'Bibata-Modern-Ice' -c 'Custom white and rounded egde Bibata cursors'
```
#### Customize Colors
To customize bibata's color you have to compile the bibata-bitmapper with `yarn compile` command.
After compiling bibata-bitmapper form source code you can customize the colors via `cli.js` node script,
Which you will find in the `dist` directory.
##### `cli.js` Help
```
Usage: bibata-bitmapper [OPTIONS]...
Options:
-V, --version output the version number
-d, --dir <path> Specifies the directory for placement of SVG files.
-o, --out <path> Specifies the output directory. (default './bitmaps')
-n, --themeName <string> Specifies the name of output directory.
-bc, --baseColor <hex> Specifies the Hexadecimal color for inner part of cursor.
-oc, --outlineColor <hex> Specifies the Hexadecimal color for cursor's ouline.
-wc, --watchBackgroundColor <hex> Specifies the Hexadecimal color for animation background.
-h, --help display help for command
```
##### `yarn render` aberration
Here are the default commands we used for generating the Bibata's bitmaps and packed them into `yarn render`:
```bash
node dist/cli.js -d 'svg/modern' -n 'Bibata-Modern-Amber' -bc '#FF8300' -oc '#FFFFFF' -wc '#001524'
node dist/cli.js -d 'svg/modern' -n 'Bibata-Modern-Classic' -bc '#000000' -oc '#FFFFFF'
node dist/cli.js -d 'svg/modern' -n 'Bibata-Modern-Ice' -bc '#FFFFFF' -oc '#000000'
node dist/cli.js -d 'svg/original' -n 'Bibata-Original-Amber' -bc '#FF8300' -oc '#FFFFFF' -wc '#001524'
node dist/cli.js -d 'svg/original' -n 'Bibata-Original-Classic' -bc '#000000' -oc '#FFFFFF'
node dist/cli.js -d 'svg/original' -n 'Bibata-Original-Ice' -bc '#FFFFFF' -oc '#000000'
```
#### Examples
Lets generate modern Bibata with green base color and black outline:
```bash
node dist/cli.js -d 'svg/modern' -n 'Bibata-Hacker' -bc '#00FE00' -oc '#000000' -wc '#001524'
```
After rendering custom color you have to build cursor through `ctgen`:
```bash
ctgen build.toml -d 'bitmaps/Bibata-Hacker' -n 'Bibata-Hacker' -c 'Green and black Bibata cursors.'
```
Afterwards, Generated theme can be found in the `themes` directory.
###### Bibata Gruvbox
```bash
node dist/cli.js -d 'svg/original' -n 'Bibata-Gruvbox' -bc '#282828' -oc '#EBDBB2' -wc '#000000'
ctgen build.toml -d 'bitmaps/Bibata-Gruvbox' -n 'Bibata-Gruvbox' -c 'Groovy Bibata cursors.'
```
###### Bibata Solarized Dark
```bash
node dist/cli.js -d 'svg/original' -n 'Bibata-Solarized-Dark' -bc '#002b36' -oc '#839496' -wc '#000000'
ctgen build.toml -d 'bitmaps/Bibata-Solarized-Dark' -n 'Bibata-Solarized-Dark' -c 'Solarized Dark Bibata cursors.'
```
###### Bibata Solarized Light
```bash
node dist/cli.js -d 'svg/original' -n 'Bibata-Solarized-Light' -bc '#839496' -oc '#002b36'
ctgen build.toml -d 'bitmaps/Bibata-Solarized-Light' -n 'Bibata-Solarized-Light' -c 'Solarized Light Bibata cursors.'
```
###### Bibata Dracula
```bash
node dist/cli.js -d 'svg/original' -n 'Bibata-Dracula' -bc '#282a36' -oc '#f8f8f2'
ctgen build.toml -d 'bitmaps/Bibata-Dracula' -n 'Bibata-Dracula' -c 'Dracula Bibata cursors.'
```
## Consider Sponsoring my work
Until 2021 my cursors projects were well funded by [pling.com](https://www.pling.com) but since the
[pling-factor](https://www.pling.com/terms/payout) on the website has decreased and monthly payments
are <500$, It is now dependent on community funding and sponsorships. If you want to help me to maintain
Bibata and my other open source projects actively, consider sponsoring my work on [GitHub Sponsor](https://github.com/sponsors/ful1e5)
or DM me on [Twitter](https://twitter.com/ful1e5) if your company would like to support this project,
I will gladly look into it and post your avatar in the README.
