How To Tip:
Get the brush cursor back.
The painting tools have three possible cursors: the standard cursor (the icon from the toolbox), a cross hair
, and a cursor sized to match the currently selected brush tip. The Caps Lock key toggles the cursor for pen and brush tools from the standard cursor to a cross hair. Press the Caps Lock key to return the cursor to its standard shape.
To change the default shape of cursors for painting and other tools, choose Edit > Preferences > Display and Cursors. Select the desired cursors in both the Painting Cursors area and the Other Cursors area. The sample cursors changes to reflect your choices. Click OK.
