I'd like to be able to change the arrow cursor to red as the black
cursor can get lost on a 3200 x 1200 screen. How can I do this on the
Mac G4/9.04? Thanks, Les Caudle

I asked for solutions to this problem on this list awhile back. It
appears as though Logic uses the curser a little different than some
other programs and you can't change it to something else very reliably.
I think that at this point the best solution is to use the esc key when
you lose the curser. A little menu pops up where the curser is and you
simply have to hit esc again to exit that menu. You then know where
the pointer is.
Good suggestion. Hopefully in next version we can change the color
and size of the cursor. I've done this under Windows NT (not for
logic), and everyone that sees wants to use the same larger colored
cursors - but I'm less familiar with the Mac.
I understand you to say that even if I were to find the cursor using
ResEdit or something, that this would not be sufficient - Logic
doesn't use the normal system cursors? Thanks, Les Caudle

Yeah very easy, you will need some vodka+ red bull

Which, even if it tastes kinda disgusting, is no bad starter into a funny
evening after all (personally confirmed last year with our drummer when we
had to play in a club in Greece each night for 2 weeks).

Open LA in ResEdit, and you'll see a CURS resource, containing a
bunch of cursors. The default 'arrow' is not one of them
unfortunately...
