Oversized cursor in InDesign 2023

[default2b2v7kcqn9fc]

After a recent system update, the cursor in InDesign (2023 on Windows 10) is suddenly huge. It reverts to normal size when I drag it over the tools or other menus. I notice this only occurs on my extended monitors. Any assistance would be appreciated!

Thanks,

Hi @default2b2v7kcqn9fc,

Thank you for reaching out. We would request you to please check the below settings in InDesign and see if that helps.

 

Could you please also try changing the Display Setting of your extended monitor to Default? In Scale and Layout, keep it to 100% and Display Resolution to 1080 or 4k, depending upon your external monitor.

Let us know if that helps. We'll try our best to help.

Thanks,

Harshika

Thanks for the response.

My InDesign User Interface Scaling options were as pictured in your post.

I don't have the a resolution option of 1080 with my extended monitors, but the settings are 100% and the the display resolution is 1680 x 1050 (Recommended):

These are the same settings I had applied previously when everything was working correctly.

Thanks,

SM

Thank you for the confirmation and for sharing the screenshot. Would you mind confirming if it's happening with InDesign only or other Adobe apps like Illustrator and Photoshop?

Could you please check the same issue on the previous version of InDesign, i.e., Id 18.0, and share the results with me? Please also share the details of your external monitor, like the make and model number.

We will try our best to investigate further.

Thanks,

Harshika

The problem only occurs with InDesign 2023. I launched InDesign 2022 and the cursor appears normal (that is, not oversized).

One of my extended monitors is a Dell Model P223f, and the other is an AOC 2217V (Model TFT22W90PS). I'm running these from a Dell Precision 5560.

When I move the cursor off the page it appears as:
