Certain cursor style stop blinking / animating after a while #24565
Comments
For certain cursor blinking styles (e.g. |
It's not a big deal but it quite annoying as I didn't expect cursor to be that way. If there's a way to configure the idle time before it stop blinking, that'd be a good option for me (at least I could give them more time before stop blinking). |
for any "editor.cursorBlinking" setting except the default "blink" the cursor stops blinking. It happens in Windows 10 too! |
For your consideration in prioritizing, I was also surprised to see the cursor stop blinking after such a short period. I downloaded VS Code today (coming from Sublime Text) and would appreciate a setting to control the cursor blinking timeout. |
I agree, if we could have an option to change this, or completely disable it, it would be appreciated. |
I very much want an option to disable the timeout as well. The cursor suddenly stopping its animation is irritating because it makes me think that the vscode window has lost focus. |
I came across this issue because of opposite behaviour: I expect "blink" to stop blinking after a certain while to preserve CPU usage. |
Any updates on this guys? |

It is very annoying, that the cursor is not blinking in VSCode after 10 sec!! |
Not sure why this is marked as out-of-scope: this is clearly part of VS Code's functionality (seeing as it was originally implemented as an unlimited animation), there are people who would like the feature (both ways--always on/off), and there is no other way to do it with extensions. |
dear lord how will i ever live without this feature? its visual c++ blues all over again! :( edit: anyone tried to read the code to find if this could be done? edit:
this, MS has failed to cater to your soul once again
you sure about this? seems trivial even with electron, why/how did you arrive at this conclusion? |
