Is it possible to change the color of the cursor in the Wix IDE?

What current pain point are you facing?
The cursor in the Wix IDE is a really light gray that is difficult to see. It would be great if it could be a customizable color or even a standard black.

Do you have a current workaround that you’re using?
I’m not sure there is a workaround to change the color of the cursor

Describe the feature you need and how it would work. (Bonus points for mockups :wink:)
A robust solution would be to allow developers to choose the color of their cursors. A simple and better solution would be to change the cursor color to default to a standard black.

How will this impact you?
It makes it so I don’t have to wiggle my mouse multiple times to find the location of the cursor in the IDE.

Hi,

Can you share a screen shot of what exact cursor you refer to? Since the Wix IDE comes by default in a black theme, you’ll might want the cursor to be standard white and not black so just to make sure we’re referring to the same thing.

Anyhow, Wix IDE is a VS-Code based, so you can use the settings.json file to setup your theme color as you wish. See the quick guide here.

Let me know if that helps,
Yakir.
