I just re-read your post. I thought you were referring to the cursor
itself. I see you're referring to the hairline which can be configured to
follow the cursor. I don't know how you can configure that. The
preferences are for the default editor coloring functions . . . . I
think (that's *I think*, I don't know for certain) to change the samples
would take some Java programming.

Sorry for the confusion.

Re: [WDSCI-L] hairline cursor line (Vertical Bar) color

Ken,

To change the color of the vertical bar (the cursor), you need to change

the 'Background' color. Although it seems sort of counter-intuitive,
that's how it works. It's done so that the text color doesn't change.
The
'Foreground' color is always for the text color. The 'Background' color

is for the cursor, the background of selected text, etc.

Michael

Re: [WDSCI-L] hairline cursor line (Vertical Bar) color

Mike,

Thanks, I did try that, I change that cursor to "RED", and my flash
cursor block would show the selected text in RED...
Actually, sort of cool, I like that... :)

I happen to use a BLACK background, and the default Vertical Line
color of White works fine for me!

But, some of my co-workers, use the white back-ground, and the
Vertical line does not show up too well...
