Hi everyone

I have problem with the cross hair. It does not show up in model space. When I go to paper space it works ok. Is there a setvar for that?


Thanks for your help.

go in options under the display tab and make sure somebody hasnt changed the color of the modeltab pointer to the same color as background...:twisted:

I'm going to move this from the CAD Mgmt forum, as I believe it will be better served here.

Thanks.

Another possibility is that grid snap is on, and you are zoomed in to a point where no grid nodes are visible. Came across this a couple of years ago and it took a while to figure out!

That has the potential of being a great prank!

Thanks for the tip! My ABS 2006 tutotial has the Layout Tab pointer set to the layout background color. It was driving me crazy!

Thanks again,

lol,

Dood ole search funtion, sorry to bring up an old thread, but I just had the same problem,

After spending about 2 hours updating BIOS, display drivers, and trying to recover files, googe searchiing anything I could find, and almost resorting to pulling out what little hair I have, I found that the snap was on and I was zoomed in too far to see. What can you do eh?

What a good way to start a Friday!
