    Pen mouse cursor uses old design


    Hi everyone!I recently bought a SP11 with a pen, mouse and keyboard. Everything works fine, but one thing is bothering me.When using the pen as a pointer to point at elements on the screen, the old design for cursors is used. When using a mouse, everything looks as expected.Loading cursor with normal mouseLoading cursor when using penWith normal mouseUsing penThis happens while using other applications and services as well, not just that cursor demo. Can be accessed here, if that's importantIs this normal? If not, how can I fix it.

    Pen mouse cursor uses old design

    Is it possible to change my pen cursor?

    There's a pen cursor under the old control panel>Mouse>Pointers scroll down & you should be able to find a cursor which resembles a pen, change this to any cursor you want.

    If you wish a screenshot please le me know.
