The info.plist files accompanying the macOS cursors are interesting. They have the shadow values (shadows are drawn at runtime and not included in the cursor PDFs). They’re also full of rounding errors, which makes me thing they were generated by a tool. A human probably typed 0.033 and 0.45, and rounding errors caused the issue in the screenshot.

@marcedwards Don’t think those are rounding errors, just an effect of the way that floats are represented in binary. So a human indeed probably entered the values you said, but these representations easily parse to the right binary representation that is closest to that number.

@marcedwards What are the `delay` and `frames` here?
