I like the cross hair vertical and horizontal lines to extend the entire window.
I don't see where that is possible. The pointer size in pixels does not seem to effect the size of the cross hair?
Previously an Autocad user, love this program! Bravo on a great product.
Thanks

Can you make the cross hairs extend across the page?

Re: Can you make the cross hairs extend across the page?
That's actually the default setting.
You can switch from a small to a large crosshair under:
Edit > Application Preferences > Graphics View > Appearance:
tick both Show crosshairs and Show large crosshairs
Thank you for your kind feedback!
Re: Can you make the cross hairs extend across the page?
Thanks for the reply I have those set (default as you indicated) yet my crosshairs are black yet extend across the page white. I like a white background.
That's the problem, if you use a black background, the crosshairs show as white but if you use a white background, the cross hairs stay white, even if you select prevent white on white or black on black display. No way I can figure out how to make a black crosshair on a white background.

Sounds like you changes a lot of colours..
The default colour of the crosshairs is a golden yellow, half transparent. This shows up well on all backgrounds. You'll just have to find a colour that works for you.

Got it. Thanks, I had the cross hairs set as white.
