Daniel, I thought that the system was responsible, yet some applications apparently do change both shape and color of the cursor. Thanks, Rich I take it that it is a choice of these applications to support this. LyX does not currently support this. You can file an enhancement request on https://www.lyx.org/trac/ if it seems to be important. Daniel -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users

Is there a way to change that pointer's color? I didn't see that option in Tools -> Settings -> Display. In other applications (e.g., alpine where it's a white "I" bar which stands out on the black background, or the web browser where it's a black arrow on a white background.) In my urxvt virtual terminals I set the color to yellow which contrasts with the dark blue background.) Having the LyX cursor stand out from both the pale yellow background _and_ the black text would be really helpful. Regards, Rich I am surprised that this is only an issue for you in LyX.
