Yeah this is pretty weird and seems to be a real edge case... I tried again in Incognito mod e(i.e. without any extension or app) and I still have the same issue.

@jmukthavaram@chromium.org : the behavior in your screenshot is normal and doesn't show the bug. 'col-resize' should be from left-to-right and 'row-resize' from top-to-bottom.

In  issue 665574  we added support for getting cursor icons from the native X11 theme, and from the screencast it looks like you do probably have a custom theme setup.  I suspect this is a bug in the native theme you're using or your X11 config.

Specifically, it looks like we use XcursorLibraryLoadCursor("col-resize") and XCreateFontCursor(XC_sb_h_double_arrow) which according to the X11 docs (eg. https://tronche.com/gui/x/xlib/appendix/b/) should be a horizontal arrow image.

So this is probably WontFix as not a Chrome bug, and other browsers (like Firefox) just aren't using the native theme.  But I'm not an X11 expert, so over to thomasanderson@ just in case.  If we get lots of such reports then perhaps that would indicate there's a more serious problem here.

Summary: cursor col-resize and row-resize are inverted in some X11 configurations (was: cursor col-resize and row-resize are inverted)

Looks like a KDE bug that has already been fixed:

This issue probably does not warrant adding a Chrome-specific workaround, so closing this out as WontFix.
