Hi Tom, LyX on Mac reads the defaults values NSTextInsertionPointBlinkPeriodOff and NSTextInsertionPointBlinkPeriodOn on startup. If only one of both values is set the cursor blink is disabled. If both are set the cursor blinks with a rate of the sum of these values (given in milliseconds). You may set them with the e.g. the following command in Terminal: defaults write -g NSTextInsertionPointBlinkPeriodOn 1000 The system preference „non-blinking cursor“ is not supported yet. I don’t know how to read the user setting programmatically. BR Stephan -- lyx-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users
