What color is using for a character under block cursor?

How To Customization
1

I want it to be the same as foreground color, but it seems like its color is being inverted to the dark one.

2

In the color scheme editor, Editor > caretFore is the color of the caret (block or line).

3

Not the caret, but the character under it.

4

As you can see, “a” under the caret is black and it’s hard to read. I don’t want to change it’s color, so it will keep the foreground color.

5

Sorry, I totally read that wrong :frowning: The foreground color of the text under a block caret is the background color of the “default font” style.

6

That makes sense. But I can’t change background color of default font to something light, my theme is designed to be dark. Is it possible to add a new styling for it?

7

No, not without patching Scintilla.

8

Would you patch Scintilla for such a feature? (I don’t mind if it would be putted into Backlog)

9

No, I really don’t think it’s worth the effort :frowning:

:frowning: I’ll stuck with line cursor then
