Instead of the normal mouse pointer, which can appear as an arrow, hand, cross or text cursor, you can use elongated cross hairs in the layout window as well. This function switches between the regular pointers and the elongated cross hairs.
The crosshairs appear in the form of two long lines filling the
complete width and height of the working window. So that you can still
tell the two frame modes apart, in Create
mode the two lines of
the cross hairs are joined, while in Modify
mode there will be
a small break where they should meet, with a central dot indicating
the hot spot
