AutoCAD | How to change crosshair size (and color)

To change the size of the crosshair in AutoCAD, do the following steps:

  1. Right-click anywhere in the model space and select options.
  2. Open the Display Tab.
  3. In the bottom right there is a Crosshair size setting. Change it to what you would like.

Personally as I explain in my video, I like making the crosshair size 100, the maximum size it can be. This helps me when trying to select multiple object in the model space.
