When I use ctrl+shift and drag a file in Thunar to make a symlink of it, the feedback is no longer showing alongside the mouse cursor. Previously there was a little chain emblem next to the mouse cursor, now that emblem seems to be missing.
EDIT: can anyone using xfce replicate this?
Xfce Unstable here and it works for me. The feedback showing along the cursor shows the icon of the file type while dragging.
All branches are on version 4.18.10-2.
Ok thanks so there has been a change? Are you 100% sure you are perfoming a ctrl+shift click drag and then try moving the file onto a folder and see whether a chain emblem doesn’t appear. A chain icon should appear to symbolize a symlink being made. If you confirm that a chain icon does not appear I’ll escalate. It’ll be a bug.
EDIT: and yes I’m on 4.18.10-2 
In Thunar 4.18.10-2, take a file and drag it into another directory, without releasing it.
Then press Ctrl : a + symbol appears on the file icon.
Add Shift, the + symbol disappear, no other symbol appears (chain ?)
So yes, little bug 
Thankyou @Denis_Pom for replicating the issue. Does anyone know if this is a Manjaro bug, or an upstream Thunar bug?
I was playing around and selecting different themes, including mouse pointer themes a month ago, and by some bizarre miracle I did get the chain cursor emblem to return! But I just reset my machine and now the emblem is not displaying again. So it might be a more unusual bug.
