Crosshairs have disappeared in both Model and Paper spaces

Anonymous · ‎08-28-2015

Hello,

AutoCAD LT 2015 for Mac running on Macbook Pro with OSX Mavericks v10.9.5.

Crosshairs have disappeared in both Model and Paper spaces in all drawings. The arrow cursor still shows when hovering over the menu bar, command line, palettes etc. The selection preview of lines also works as I move the mouse around the screen. I can still select lines, draw lines etc. The selection box also does not show.

I have tried:

- Restarting AutoCAD;

- Restarting my computer and restarting AutoCAD;

- Changing the colour of the crosshairs;

- Adjusting the 3DCONFIG settings, however it says that line smoothing is disabled due to hardware limitations;

- Banging my head against a brick wall;

- Disconnecting my bluetooth mouse and turning bluetooth off.

I have read around the forums and tried the various things suggested, with no results. Any help would be much appreciated.

Regards,

Christian

Did you try setting CURSORSIZE to 100?

Update: after struggling through trying to draw without crosshairs for a good hour, the crosshairs randomly reappeared. And by random I mean I can't identify any cause for them to reappear. I was in the middle of using the DIST command when they came back, but I had been using that command throughout the previous hour. I hadn't changed the UCS or anything.

I will re-post if it happens again.
