We have added an additional feature to favorites, rotation of favorite cursors. The displayed cursor will be changed automatically depending on the events you select. Time in seconds or a number of visited pages. This only applies to cursors that are been added to favorite cursors list.

Setting up rotation of favorite cursors.

When you have a list of favorites already added and you want them to display as an active cursor and change from one favorite to another you need to activate that feature. To do so you need to click the extension icon in the browser taskbar the extension main window pop-up will be shown.

To be able to properly use the cursor rotation feature you need to setup a trigger event when to change your cursor. Proceed to manage page as described in the previous section and find a second toggle that lets you select the type of event and input of value. There can be only two types of events: activating the cursor from favorites list by time, every amount seconds you enter; activating the cursor from favorites list by a number of pages that you visited, in the input you need to specify the number of pages that should be viewed for a cursor to be changed. Be sure to properly select time/page toggle and specify the number of seconds or pages for rotation to take place.

Please make sure that you did not set a very short interval in seconds so that browser would have time to set and properly display your cursor.
