XCode 6 support #2

Closed ngoccuong291 closed 10 years ago

Hi there,

This trick does not seem to work 100% with the new XCode 6, after modifying the cursor tiff file I can see the change but right after I start typing code, the cursor turn back to black and stay black until you move it to some area that force the cursor to change. I suspect there are some other places to hold the cursor for code typing.

Do you have any solution for this issue?

Thanks

Good question. I'll check into it.

OK I checked into the behavior you described and verified it. However, it isn't a matter of it switching TIFF files. It simply hides the mouse cursor whenever you begin typing. Much like Chrome and most other apps do, at least in OSX 10.9 (Mavericks).

Likely this is not something we can fix unless there's an operating system level defaults.write you can do to disable this behavior.
