Summary0027804: Icons Offsetting From Cursor
DescriptionDepending on the distance and angle, the various icons shown when you're using a command or tool (dispatch icons, eye icon, etc) can detach from where the cursor actually is.

This is purely a visual bug, as the interaction itself is tied to the cursor position. I'm not sure how to capture the screen in a way that shows the cursor, so sadly I can't give a picture for it.

This is basically those icons being shown at the point where your cursor has raycasted to a target and has hit some collider. Then it moves the icon a bit toward you, and a bit upward, so that it doesn't clip into things. The results are sometimes a bit off, but typically if you look at it from the perspective of "oh it's following where my cursor ray intersects that collider," then the positioning pretty much always makes sense. It can be a tad off, but usually not as much.

It feels a bit strange, because if this were a real cursor, then it would just be directly under the mouse cursor no matter what. And in some ways, this could be adjusted to be that if we really wanted to, at some point down the line. But in the style of what it is (showing the actual impact point of your raycast, but moved toward the camera), not much can really be done.
