Cursor Color

[bartopine]

Hello .. I am trying to change the color of my cursor whenever I enter insertmode but i am not successful in doing so. I have manage to change the cursorlineNr etc. But changing the color of the Cursor itself seems not to work.

I am really happy with the plugin so far! :)

Hi there! The thing is that the Cursor highlights aren't supported in 'winhighlight' option in Neovim (and actually it makes no sense since there aren't multiple cursors yet). Just move it to the hl section

modes = {
  i = {
    hl = {
      Cursor = { bg = '#fabd2f' }
    },
    winhl = {
      -- your other highlights
    }
  }
}

Thank you for the help! .. The color still does not change eventhough i have moved it to the hl section.. I think it has something to do with the fact that I am using Windows Terminal .. but thanks a lot anyways 👍

@bartopine you can take a look at this file inside the repo: https://github.com/rasulomaroff/reactive.nvim/blob/main/lua/reactive/builtin/cursor.lua

Maybe you misspelled something. Is Cursor highlight actually applied to your vim.opt.guicursor option?

Hello!..

I have tried doing the same thing but still .. i can't manage to make the Cursor change it's colors.

here is my setting ..

@bartopine look at your 6 and 4 relative lines. after vim.opt.guicursor:append("a:CustomCursor") you're setting it to the empty line with vim.o.guicursor = "" Remove the latter
