Crosshair pointer gets removed when selecting any drawing tool

My preffered default pointer is always the Crosshair pointer.
When I select the Crosshair pointer and start to work with it, like selecting any drawing tools, it automatically gets overriden by the Cursor pointer.
I have to click the Crosshair pointer again to make it active, then after a click on the drawing tool it again vanishes and the Cursor pointer become active by default. This is very annoying.

As you can see in the attached screen-recording, I select the Crosshair, and as soon as I select any other drawing tool of my choice, it switches back to the Cursor mode every time.

In TradingView’s interface, once you select the Crosshair, it always stays as Crosshair until you manually change it back to any other type of pointer. With the Crosshair pointer in TradingView, I can draw, resize and do all the actions I need while still staying in Crosshair mode.

I think this is a very critical bug in ForexTester and needs to be resolved ASAP as its not a good experience backtesting and doesn’t show the horizonal price levels which are very essential for placing risk/reward levels and drawing other shapes like line, rectangle etc.
