    Hi, what version of the PCB editor are you using & what is your graphic card type - specs ?

    I think what you are seeing is the text from the Tool Tips when you pass your cursor over an object. You could try disable the full screen cursor and see if things improve.

    the version is 17.4 and updated latedst hotfix. my graphic card is NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB so it would be not problem I think..

    but my design is comlicated, the job is hard work without infinite cursor.. is there any other solution ?

    Hi, On my system here with a radeon graphics workstation grade video card the full screen cursor has been broken since the first release of 17.4.

    In the following situation the FSC is a "Dead Stick" Display performance is very slow.

    FSC enabled via preferences & Start Page disabled. If using FSC it works a little better when the startpage is enabled.

    I do have some suggestions. You could try update the video driver "OpenGl Stack" as Orcad/Allegro uses OpenGl for graphics speed etc.

    The only other option is to not use the FSC and revert that to the standard + type cursor. Possibly another option would be to use 17.2 instead of 17.4 as no graphics issues exist with the
    prior release.

    We went back to using 17.2 here due to the graphics issues with 17.4.

    All the best.
