+### Why is it flickering when I put my cursor over it?
-- [x] Make the crosshair Click-through https://github.com/lelgenio/wl-crosshair/pull/1
+In wayland, windows cannot be "click-through", so in order to still send events we "close" the window when you hover it and show it in the next frame.
-- [ ] Option to control size of crosshair
-- [ ] Option to offset crosshair
-- [ ] Configuration file
-- [x] Support for loading custom crosshair images
