I find it very difficult to see the cursor (a thin cross) when creating and modifying features (in ArcGIS Pro) and when georeferencing. In both these cases, I imagine the reason for a small thin cross is to avoid obscuring the features you are working with and to make it easier to see the exact point you are choosing. But it needs to be possible to change it in some way because it is very difficult to see on a complex background.  Maybe a certain key could be held down to temporarily toggle to a larger cursor (as C is for panning and Space is for snapping). I would consider this an accessibility issue.

I completely agree. The cursor, in editing mode, is too small. It literally gets lost while trying to digitize over almost any color combinations in scanned images or other data sources. It would be great to have an option in settings to change the cursor or make adjustments to it (size, color, style, etc.).

Hello, we would like to be able as a user to change the appereance of the sketch pointer when drawing lines, specifically we would like it to be able to switch from a cross that is now to a circle with a centroid.
