 Posted: Mon Apr 23, 2012 10:07 pm Post subject: Disappearing cursor |
 |
|
The problem I am having is in Photoshop 12.0.4.
I had set my cursor to show brush size but whenever I click and drag using a brush (any type of brush) the cursor changes to a standard Macintosh arrow cursor for the duration of the drag, then reverts to the brush size cursor only when I stop dragging.
This makes it very difficult to see where I am painting.
This only occurs on my MacBookPro… my iMac performs exactly as I would expect it to.
I have quit Photoshop and deleted all my settings and preferences files but it doesn't make any difference.
I have tried different combinations of cursor settings with no success.
I have an external monitor connected to my MBP but it doesn't matter which screen my PS window is on.
And, before anybody suggests it, it isn't a caps lock issue.

I seem to have fixed this problem - though I don't know how!
I restarted my MacBookPro and zapped the PRAM (cmd-opt-P-R at startup) and repaired disk permissions.
I wouldn't have expected any of this to make any difference but one of them did... my PS cursors work fine now.
Happy days! |

Always nice to find the solution, even better when you find it yourself. Thanks for sharing the solution too!
