As you work, the cursor changes to reflect your current activity.
In the drawing area, the appearance of the cursor changes:
- If you are prompted to specify a point location, the crosshairs cursor is displayed.
- If you are prompted to select an object, the cursor changes to a small square called a pickbox.
- When no command is active, the cursor is a combination of the crosshairs and pickbox.
- If you are prompted to enter text, the cursor is a vertical text entry bar.
You can change the size of the crosshairs and pickbox cursors in the Options dialog box ( OPTIONS).
