--- Comment #11 from [email protected] --- I have made some interesting progress on this... I also have a Mac mini 2012 which I have also discovered has the wildly blinking caret. After painstaking troubleshooting, I think I have found the culprit! When I temporarily moved the following file from the Preferences folder: /Users/user/Library/Preferences/.GlobalPreferences.plist then start LibreOffice, the cursor now blinks properly! I went further and found that one particular property was the cause of it: Key: NSTextInsertionPointBlinkPeriodOff Type: Number Value: 0 When I deleted this key from the .GlobalPreferences.plist file, LibreOffice now behaves, and I can type, double-click and select text and it now works properly! Can anyone else having this issue verify this? Dear LO devs, can you see why this setting would cause LibreOffice to misbehave so badly? NO other apps had any problem with this, including Page, OpenOffice, Text Edit, Firefox, Thunderbird, Geany, etc. Hope this helps! :-) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
