Greetings,

Is there a way to change the properties (color, size, shape) of the editor cursor?  I am utilizing a dark background & am having issues seeing the cursor.

In your template's user.css or custom.css file, add the following:

.mceContentBody {
    caret-color: #fff;
}

The next update will automatically set this style value based on the darkness of the body background.
