Invisible crosshairs

[jonf@adobeforums.com]

When in Acrobat 8, it seems the crosshairs which form the typical cursor for some tools are invisible unless they're actually over the artwork itself. Since my pdf pages frequently don't fill the screen, and Acrobat's stupid "pasteboard" area or whatever they call it insists on filling my entire monitor, that means I'm frequently jogging the mouse around randomly to try to find out where my cursor ended up.

Is there an adjustment somewhere so I can fix this? Maybe change the color of the crosshairs? Maybe the color of the background? Maybe get rid of that background that fills my monitor? This has become pretty annoying on a daily basis.

[edit: to clarify, I'm not referring to full screen mode. Any document always seems to open in a window filling almost the entire monitor with what seems to be an unchangeable gray background.]

They are annoying.

Jon B are you referring to the crosshairs or Adobe when you say "They"?

if you mean the crosshairs then you are being annoyed by something that isn't there, which is sort of spooky :0

Not answering you Glenn - makes it even spookier!

Do you think Adobe might make this Grey colour a pref users can change with v9?
