Occationally my cursor will disapear in the drawing area. I can get it back outside the drawing area if I go to the Windows Start Task bar, click in a open area there and return to the command line, ribbon, palletts or toolbars, but I still can't see it in the drawing area. I have to restart C3D in order to get it back. Any ideas on what is going on and how to deal with it better than hard restarts.
This time I had three C3D drawings open at the time. The model was about 15 MB. The two sheet drawings had to sheets each and are about 2 MB each.

"This usually happens to me after a save/autosave. Move the cursor along the ribbon or menu area until you above the Visual Style Controls on the drawing canvas (normally in the upper left corner, may need to zoom out to see them) then move the mouse down over the style and the croshairs should magically reappear."
They're only available in Model Space or from within MS of a Viewport.
