SUMMARY

When changing zoom to a certain zoom levels, the drawing cursor may become invisible. It’s really hard to draw with an invisible cursor.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a new image
2. Activate the Freehand Brush tool
3. Set/keep brush size at 1 pixel
4. Zoom to 66.7% using the mouse wheel
5. Observe that the cursor is invisible (at some other zoom levels it’s tiny)

OBSERVED RESULT

The cursor (with which I'm drawing a sketch) is invisible.

EXPECTED RESULT

The cursor's size may be tiny, as in most other zoom levels at 1 pixel size, but not invisible.
