Mouse cursor disappears over background in new designer

Hey all -

First off, for context, I am 57. I thought at first the cursor was just too small, so I fiddled with the color/size, but no luck. Whenever I move over the "canvas" in the new designer, the cursor changes to a white hand which is only visible at the edge of the canvas (where there is a slight fade from grey to white) but then just completely transparent unless I move over the top of an action/trigger "module", and it then goes to the normal color. Nothing seems to be broken, but I just cannot see it, even zoomed in. This makes me lose the mouse often and I have to move to the top to position it where I can see it, then slowly move down to get over the action I need to work on.

Does this happen to anyone else and if so how have you fixed it (if you have)?

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

-SCM

Thanks for the response @Pstork1!

That's the first thing I checked (after my glasses hah).

Looks similar to yours. I thought it was probably pulling from the OS settings also. I am using Edge (browser). Going to try Chrome and see if it persists. I have the white hand, but it literally disappears unless over an object or a darker color. I used magnifiers and still cannot see it against the grid markers (faint dots), only if it's in a "mouseover" state.

I appreciate your answer though. if you celebrate, have a Merry Christmas!

Mine shows up as a White hand with a black outline. I think it uses the Operating System settings for the size and coloration of the mouse. What size etc is your mouse set to in your OS? These are the settings I use.
