Q. I am using Windows 7 and have the Alphacam program loaded. When I try to create a rectangle or a line, many white cross hairs show on the screen. Is there a solution to this?
A. Yes.
- If you have Alphacam running, save your work and close Alphacam.
- Create a Shortcut for Alphacam on your Desktop.
- Perform a right mouse click on the Alphacam Shortcut icon and select Properties.

Once in the Properties of the icon, select the Compatibility tab.

Select “Disable desktop composition” so that a check mark will appear.

Click on the Apply button.
Click on the OK button.
Launch Alphacam and the multiple cross hairs will no longer show on the screen.
