Version: (using KDE 3.5.9) Installed from: SuSE RPMs Currently there is only one cursor -- | (black). It would be useful to be able to configure this (for both modes, insert and overwrite): * shape: |, _, # (rectangle, filled) * blinking/non-blinking * color+transparency * if blinking -- alternate color+transparency * if blinking -- speed Kdelibs: because it is important for every edit-box, memo, etc.
By "cursor", I think you mean "caret"? The "caret" is the little indicator that shows where you are typing, which can also be called "cursor", except that "cursor" can also mean mouse cursor. Please clarify so I can make the bug description unambiguous :-).
Yes, caret, sorry for not using this term.
No worries, it's a fairly obscure (and definitely technical ;-)) term. I'll leave "text cursor" in the description as a reminder for people not familiar with the term and to help with bug searches. Thanks for the clarification.
Hi, kdelibs (version 4 and earlier) is no longer maintained since a few years. KDE Frameworks 5 or 6 might already have implemented this wish. If not, please re-open against the matching framework if feasible or against the application that shows the issue. We then can still dispatch it to the right Bugzilla product or component.
