"Shake to Find Cursor" feature for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS

Is there any software that does the same as the macOS feature "Shake to Find Cursor" for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS?


Solution 1:

It is possible on Ubuntu 20.04 (GNOME Shell version 3.36.x) using a GNOME Shell extension called 'Jiggle'.

Jiggle is a Gnome Shell extension that highlights the cursor position when the mouse is moved rapidly.

It provides some customisation options too:

Besides the 'cursor scaling' effect (as in the screencast above), it currently provides two more effects: 'fireworks' and 'spotlight'.
