Changing cursor color

[Robert Andrews]

I am using a black background, but my cursor is black also. I want to keep the black back ground and change the cursor to white but cant seem to find out how, I know how change colors on everything else but the cursor. thanks

check your windoze cursor setting

if your running windows 7 right click then properties then on the left hand side you will see change mouse pointers. Select the pointers tab. Scheme would be Windows Aero (system scheme)

I had the same problem years ago and never was able to change my cursor to white no matter what I did in Windows. I ended up just changing my background color to a really dark blue. Good luck

[gcode]

Try this..

 

go into settings config/colors

 

turn gradient background off

set background color to white

save and close system config

 

the cursor should be black

 

now reverse the process

 

set background color to black

 

the cursor should turn white

same thing in xp just go to control panel then Mouse then pointers.

[gcode]

I always turn Mouse themes off in any OS..

 

the Mastercam cursor color is automatically set to contrast with the background color

but sometimes is get confused and you wind up with black on black

or white on white..

 

turning gradient off and making radical changes to the plain background color

will retrain the cursor to contrast with whatever background color you choose
