ICS6.1.7-64b.78 gravity and cross cursor

Just switched from version IC6.1.7-64b.500.4 to ICS6.1.7-64b.78. And surprise surprise, there are again some subtil differences that interfere with my workflow, so I want to disable them.

  • First, I turn on the cross cursor by default. Normally, if you draw a horizontal or vertical ruler, the cross cursor stays visible. After the update, my cross cursor disappears when drawing a ruler. Only one of the two lines of the cross stays visible (the one with the same direction as the ruler). This way, the cross cursor is pretty useless. How do you control that?
  • Second, there seems to be some permanent form of gravity, but the gravity (under gravity controls) is turned off. I can switch it of with envSetVal("layout" "gravityType" 'string ""), but I think that's a bit dirty. Is there an other way to control the gravity?

Only  those 2 thongs for now, after all, I only used it for 30 minutes :)

    I wasn't really aware that this is an older release. In our company, we have a CAD department that handles those updates, and they informed that ISR8 was up for test. Thanks for the info, I'll redirect my complaining to the correct people :)
