3 cursors in Elements 9

I am running Elements 9 on Windows 8.1 and all of a sudden I have 3 cursors joined together. Does anyone have a clue how to resolve this? I did see a link to another question about this and it was resolved by changing the text size but the instructions related to Windows 7 and Vista and I can't seem to replicate it in Windows 8. Any help would be gratefully received

Generally that's caused by the system dpi scaling
(the triple cursor effect)
Go to Control Panel>Appearance and Personalization>Make text and other items larger or smaller
Then try adjusting the size to Smaller
You might have to use Let me choose one scaling level for all my displays and use the Custom sizing options and choose something like 124% or 149%

How can I have a single cursor using elements 9 with Windows 7?

Currently the cursor on my screen is 3 small boxes in place of the single arrow. I am using Photoshop Elements 9 With Windows 7. I have loaded the patch files currently in the Adobe system without any success.

Thank-you that solved the issue.

Cursor in Elements 9 is now three little hands

Don't know how to fix the problem.

I suspect it may have something to do with your monitor settings. Go to the control panel and check dpi scaling under Appearance or Display.
It’s not uncommon to see a setting of 125% or higher to improve screen readability but PSE requires a dpi of 96 or 100%
Whilst the Editor Menu will appear at 120% to 149% the Organizer Menu (and the advanced button in downloader) won’t. Sometimes the mouse or tool cursors are distorted.
Try a setting of 115% to 120% otherwise use 100%. A common display resolution, notably for notebooks/laptops, and netbooks is 1024 x 768 but PSE requires a screen height of 800 for full functionality. If your height resolution is out of the range 768 to 800 try experimenting with the slider/settings.

Elements 7 cursor problem x 3

My cursor in Elements 7 now appears as three little cursors. Either three little paint cans, three litle brushes, etc. Uninstalling and reinstalling three times and resetting preferences did not help. Any clues? Anyone?

Check dpi scaling via the system control panel and change text size below 150%
Ideally you should use a setting of 100% but 149% works.

How to add (multiple) cursors programmatically in an XY graph?

how to add (multiple) cursors programmatically in an XY graph?
I am building an XY graph. then I would like to add cursors at certain locations (positioned on x axis) I determine through a program.
How can I add cursors programatically?
Thank you.

Initialize a cluster array (CrsrList type) with as many cursors as you think you would ever need. Setup your cursors dynamically, then delete the unused cursors (array elements) and then update your CursorList property.

Problem with speed after adding external html "template

HI
I created nice looking html "template" for my site in program Aristeer 2. Basicly it created 3 files for me- *.HTML (about 10kb) *.CSS(avout 25kb) and *.js(javascript about 7kb). I was thinking that it will work perfectly ,when i will just define new dreamweaver site and open the html file in my Dreamweaver CS3.
problem is,that everything ,what i want to do,in this site takes enormly long time...if i just click to open my html file,it takes about 2 minutes to open it,later,when am trying to delete some picture,delete some text,add some ApDiv,create table etc,it takes really a lot of time to do it...
am just wondering why,cos am still working with ,lets say,small files,so where is the problem?
can please somebody help me how to fix it? (when i open another site,that i designed all by Dreamweaver CS3,there is no problem like that....)
thanks a lot

I have no idea what the problem is. I did download your page and I have no idea how you can even work with that file in DW. Every time I moved my cursor, the elements either disappeared or reappeared as I moved over the page.
Looks like every element on that page has been placed inside an absolutely positioned div which may or may not account for the 'slowness'..
I did notice a lag (slowness) with the mouse movement - but once I managed to get open a content container, I did paste some text into it but it was all very slow.
I' put it down to the way the page has been created honestly. Even though it validates and no errors were found, that really is not the best way to create a web page. (sorry). I realise YOU did not create it, it was an automated process - I'd stay well away from it in future :-)

Popup not center screen at the first click

Hi All,
I have just met an issue:
At a ViewProduct dialog, when click on the photo (the resized one) to show a popup which displays the full-size photo. I want center the popup on sceen (as in http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj733572.aspx#centerpopup).
The width & height of the photo in popup are "Fit to Content". At the first click, the popup's not centered. After closing the popup, from the second click in ViewProduct, the popup's centered correctly.
Hope you can help me. Thankyou.
My code:
myapp.ViewProduct.PhotoURL1_postRender = function (element, contentItem) {
// Write code here.
displayPhoto(element);
var img = $(element).find("img");
$(element).css({
'cursor': 'pointer'
$(element).prop('title', 'Click here to display full-size photo');
$(element).click(function () {
// Note:If using JQuery Mobile 1.3 (or higher) use
// "popupcreate" rather than "popupbeforeposition"
$(window).one("popupbeforeposition", function (e) {
$(e.target).popup({
positionTo: "window",
transtition: "flow"
}, 100);
contentItem.screen.showPopup("FullScreenPhoto");
function displayPhoto(element) {
$(element).css({
'min-width': '100%',
'min-height': '100%',
'width': '100%',
'height': '100%',
'display': 'inline'
$(element).find("div.msls-image-border").addClass("responsive");
$(element).find("img").removeProp("style");
$(element).find("img").addClass("responsive");

Hi All,
I have found a solution :-)
myapp.ViewProduct.FullScreenPhoto_postRender = function (element, contentItem) {
// Write code here.
// to fix the popup not screen-centered at the Fist Click when photo is "Fit to Content"
var myimg = $(element).find("img");
$(myimg).one('load', function (e) {
var container = $(element).closest("div.ui-popup-container.ui-popup-active");
// Ref source: css-tricks.com/snippets/jquery/get-an-images-native-width/
// Create new offscreen image to test
var theImage = new Image();
theImage.src = myimg.attr("src");
// Get accurate measurements from that.
var imageWidth = theImage.width;
var imageHeight = theImage.height;
// Ref source: stackoverflow.com/questions/7060422/center-item-on-screen-with-jquery
var obj = $(container);
var obj_width = $(container).outerWidth(true);
var obj_height = $(container).outerHeight(true);
var window_width = window.innerWidth ? window.innerWidth : $(window).width();
var window_height = window.innerHeight ? window.innerHeight : $(window).height();
if ($(window).width() > imageWidth) {
$(container).animate({ left: (window_width - obj_width) / 2, top: (window_height - obj_height) / 2 }, 0);
else {
$(container).animate({ left: 0, top: 0 }, 0); //for very large image
element.title = "Click to close";
$(element).css({
'cursor': 'pointer'
$(element).click(function () {
contentItem.screen.closePopup("FullScreenPhoto"); //click to close

Fix for broken tool cursors in PS Elements 7 with Windows 8.1?

I have Photoshop Elements 7 and have been perfectly happy with it for editing photos/images as a hobby on my older Windows XP and Windows 7 PCs. I have no real need to upgrade to Photoshop Elements 12. I just installed Windows 8.1 on my new Surface Pro and now all the tool cursors in PS Elements 7 are broken. Reinstalling PS Elements 7 did not work. All the tools which use an actual graphic for a cursor appear distorted. What can I do to fix this?

PhotoShop Elements 5.0 Cursor locks to Hand tool

I use Photoshop Elements 5.0, and sometimes, my cursor will lock to the hand tool and I can't use any other tools. I will exit the program and open it back up, and it will still be locked on the hand tool, but later, it will randomly start working again and let me use the other tools. How can I fix this?

I'd start by checking the space bar on the keyboard. It might be sticking. When (if) you get stuck in the hand tool, try tapping your space bar.
Reason: The space bar is the shortcut that calls up the hand tool.

Weird Cursor(s) in Photoshop Elements

Today when I started using my photoshop elements the cursors had changed, there are different ones that switch depending on what tool I try to use. For some of the tools the cursor almost looks like it is trying to resemble the icon for it but three times and in dots.
I have tried the following possible solutions (none have worked):
*Checked the Caps Lock Key
*Reset the Tools
*Reset preferences (Hold down Shift, Alt, and Ctrl at startup)
*Checked Font Size
*Checked Preferences (Preferences>Display and Cursors)
*Put my display back to the default of 100%
It is weird with the following tools:
*Magnetic Lasso
*Magic Wand
*Text
*Crop
*Magic Eraser
*Paint Bucket
*Shape Selection
*Straighten Tool
*Lasso
*Polygonal Lasso
*Eye Dropper
*Hand Tool
*Zoom
*Move
Any Ideas on how to fix this? I can't even resize images properly since it started doing this.
Thanks!
