cursor problem

Hi all,

is there a way in photoshop CS2 to have a cursor which, instead of
being a small cross, is represented by two lines, one horitontal one
vertical that cross the entire document. I think it is easier for
precise selection. It is used in most CAD applications...

Thank you,

Pluton

Pluton,

About as close as I can tell, is to watch the line on the Rulers (Ctrl-R). The
lines do NOT go across the document, but are visible in the Ruler itself. Not
what you are looking for, but I believe that it will be all you can get in PS.

Someone correct me, if I am wrong, please,
Hunt

That's what I think too but I was not sure...

Thank you,
