HighPrecisionCrosshair - Professional TradingView-Style Crosshair

Enterprise-grade crosshair overlay for banking, medical, engineering, and scientific applications with smooth animations and magnetic snapping.

Professional Features:

• Smooth Animation: 60 FPS interpolated position updates
• Magnetic Snapping: Snaps to nearest data point
• Axis Labels: X/Y values in professional label boxes
• Minimal Lines: Subtle, dashed crosshair lines
• High Contrast: Optimized for medical/engineering precision
• Zero Lag: Hardware-accelerated rendering
• Theme-Aware: Adapts to dark/light instantly

Design Inspiration:

• TradingView crosshair (smooth, animated)
• Bloomberg Terminal cursor (precise, minimal)
• Medical imaging crosshair (high contrast)
• CAD software precision cursor (snapping)

Since:

2026-01-01

Version:

1.0.0 - Professional Edition
