CURSOR CROSS HAIR SETTINGS

[ronniemcc]

Where are the settings for the selector cursor (crosshair). It is typical for graphics design apps to have a setting to adjust the selection cursors overall size and also orientation, i.e linear or orthogonal. I cant find the settings in any of the xara apps we have. Although it is probably the same in all, we specifically need to locate the settings in photo & Graphics Designer 9
Hope some can hep

You mean like AutoCad where the crosshairs go from top to bottom, and left to right?

Are you referring to something like the attached image?

Xara does not offer this kind of cursor.

There are custom cursors on the web you can download and install though I am always wary of anything that is free (even from C-Net) because you generally get more than you bargained for and not in a good way.

No, what I am needing specifically is to enlarge the target area in the center of the cursor crosshairs, my example was meant to provide a reference so others would know what I was looking for.
Since you responded, is there "ANY" modification available for the cursor and crosshair
Thanks !!

Not within Xara, but as I pointed out, there are custom cursors. Again, I am not sure if they will work inside Xara.

I think there may a registry setting that can be set with XaReg to change the cursor to a crosshair but as far as I know nothing in regards to sizes. Perhaps someone else may have a better idea.

I've seen this in pixel pushing painter apps but not vector apps, although the vector Painter tool's circular cursor region is realizable.
Otherwise, the feature you are looking for doesn't exist with Xara software.
