Fat I-Beam cursor - how?
Posted by: Shaddam IV on 2023-12-11 06:04:38
Hello, I run System 7.1 on my Powerbook 160. On the (recapped) screen, the mouse cursor - specifically the I-beam when text is edited - is hard to see after I've moved it. I remember from 30 years ago that there used to be utilities for making the I-Beam bold (2 or 3 px wide). Would anyone have a hint? Thanks! Kind regards, Karl

Huh. I remember this too. Could it be in the Easy Access control panel?

No, that panel allows the user to define keys with which to use the mouse cursor. Thanks!
