SKILL IDE Cursor Color

alecadair

I have download and am using the SKILL IDE. I would like to change my color preferences to a darker layout. The problem with this is that I cannot find a way to change the caret color on the text to a different color other than black (I would prefer a white caret). With a black background I am unable to see the black caret. Has anyone else faced this problem? If so any advice would be awesome on how to change the caret color to white.

    This does not seem to be possible in the current releases (IC617/ICADV123). I couldn't find any request for this to be fixed (it clearly needed to be), but I just tried in an early build of IC618 (due for release in the Autumn), and the cursor color automatically updates to be something sensible to provide sufficient contrast against the background color.

    Regards,

    Andrew
