I’m expriencing a broken cursor when enlarging brushes in Photoshop CS4 [see pic]. The cursor is OK at small sizes, but start to get but off after enlarging past a medium size. Can this bug be fixed?

WinXP, 3GB RAM, NVIDIA 6800 GT video card

based on that thread, you should update your video drivers. 🙂

I was having the same problem but it now appears to be fixed. I went to the hardware accelerator slider of the graphics card and reduced the slider from full to about 3/4 full. This fixed the problem. Hope it works for you

This fixed the problem.

actually that masks the problem. the fix is still an updated video driver. if the latest one for your card doesn’t work, keep using that setting for now, but write to the card manufacturer and report the bug.

Yes, NVidia has put out multiple versions of their drivers with fixes for this bug. The most recent is for cases with multiple displays.
