Hello Ales, Thanks VERY much for your efforts here!

The problem is that all the cursors I tried were very clunky and actually worse than just the arrow pointer: // cursor = gdk_cursor_new(GDK_CROSSHAIR); // cursor = gdk_cursor_new(GDK_TOP_TEE); // cursor = gdk_cursor_new(GDK_TCROSS); // cursor = gdk_cursor_new(GDK_CROSS); // cursor = gdk_cursor_new(GDK_DIAMOND_CROSS); // cursor = gdk_cursor_new(GDK_DOTBOX); // cursor = gdk_cursor_new(GDK_PLUS); // cursor = gdk_cursor_new(GDK_TARGET); // cursor = gdk_cursor_new(GDK_TCROSS); // cursor = gdk_cursor_new(GDK_TREK); // cursor = gdk_cursor_new(GDK_BOGOSITY); // cursor = gdk_cursor_new(GDK_CENTER_PTR); // cursor = gdk_cursor_new(GDK_CROSS_REVERSE); // cursor = gdk_cursor_new(GDK_DOT); There doesn't appear to be anything like just a nice clean plain "+" sign which would be an improvement. I guess what I was hoping for was a full window cross which would make aligning a long net at low magnification easier. As it stands now, it isn't a real problem since you can zoom in and just move it where you want it when you get close.
