Make mouse cursor more visible when it's moving

[Graeme]

When the mouse cursor is in an edit window it's an "i-beam" thing which is really hard to spot if you don't already know where the cursor is.  It would be helpful if the cursor could be more visible when it's moving  - with a short delay on changing to and from an i-beam.  I have my system set up to indicate where the mouse cursor is if I press the CTRL key but I would much prefer the cursor to be more visible when it's moving.

We have a long-time feature request regarding this, but have not as yet decided on how to implement it without dragging down drawing / scrolling performance.  The issue is on our minds though.

That's good to hear, thanks.

Maybe slickedit could get a user voice website  - user voice is expensive, here's a cheap one but I don't know what it's like

It might help slickedit to turn up in search engines a bit more perhaps.  Might not get honest voting though - some people might vote for everything and restricting to 3 votes per person isn't very useful.

I just discovered that windows 10 lets you set the cursor size and colour.  This solves the problem for Windows.  I now have a beautiful lime green cursor and a much more visible Ibeam.
