how to modify cursor visibility Mint Mate 17.1


I just switched from Cinnamon to Mate and having difficulty finding a way to increase size of Mouse pointer. I've installed several cursor pointer utilities or programs yet nothing appears in menus for setting them up or modifying the pointer. Pointer also seems to disappear when not moving and I have to move the mouse til it appears; sometimes a long time. Not enough contrast in desktop to see the tiny pointer. Thanx%;]SW

I solve my own question: click Menu-Appearance-Theme-Customize-pointer- then choose your desired pointer and save exit.
