XFCE equivalent of a Windows feature: Ctrl to show Mouse Pointer

I saw this question, but its answers are solely for GNOME, and the highest voted answer gives the output

No such schema “org.gnome.settings-daemon.peripherals.mouse”

How to highlight the mouse pointer by pressing ctrl or some other button in XFCE?

winmouse Similar feature in Windows. Source

Note: I don't want to lose all the shortcuts related to ctrl , as pointed out in this comment.


Solution 1:

XFCE4 on Ubuntu Studio has that feature under "Accessibility" settings:

You then just need to add a shortcut to xfce4-find-cursor in the keyboard shortcuts. You can choose any key you like, including left or right Ctrl. However, it will also activate on any other Ctrl+... combinations then of course.
