Hi,


I want to implement my own rich text editor component through a gadget. Is there a way to display a blinking cursor automatically?


Browsing through the API docs I don't think there is a way to do this, although standard text fields do manage to display a blinking cursor. Is there a way to hook into this?

The only solution I can think of right now is to use a timeout value for EvtGetEvent (instead of evtWaitForever) so that I can draw my own blinking cursor in the EventLoop. While this should still be performant, this does not put the CPU in doze mode (like evtWaitForever does) and thus drains the battery unnecessarily.


Thanks -Laurens
