Description ekans 2015-12-13 18:17:13 UTC 
I miss the option that you can change the width of the "blinking cursor", so that also people with eye problems can see the text-input-position for example in Libre Office or KMail. In my opinion is this very necessary for the accessibility.  (kde 4 / OpenSuse13.1)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click with the mouse in a input field (like this)
2. The blinking cursor is very small and bad visible for people with eye problems
3.

This has since been fixed. We improved the colors of the text to increase contrast.

Oops, closed the wrong bug, sorry.

A possibly relevant merge request was started @ https://invent.kde.org/plasma/breeze/-/merge_requests/190
Comment 4 shenlebantongying 2022-04-24 21:30:22 UTC 
Probably we should also support alternative cursor types like block, hollow and horizontal bar.
