The cursor you are talking about is the "insert" cursor, which indeed is not need in a ROText. The other cursor you define in your options controls the look of the mouse. Use the standard Tk option of insertwidth to "hide" the insert cursor. ... -insertwidth => 0 Jack
_____ From: perl-win32-users-boun...@listserv.activestate.com [mailto:perl-win32-users-boun...@listserv.activestate.com] On Behalf Of Daniel Burgaud Sent: July-31-09 5:32 PM To: Perl-Win32-Users Subject: Need help removing blinking cursor on a TK Scrolled Hi I have a Scrolled ROText: $scrolled = $mw->Scrolled( 'ROText', -relief => 'flat', -borderwidth => 1, -scrollbars => 'e', -cursor => 'top_left_arrow', -width =>200, -height => 30, )->pack( -side => 'top', -expand => 1, -fill => 'both', ); My problem is that there is this annoying thin blinking cursor that is ruining the display. ie, there is already a "top_left_arrow" cursor controlled by the mouse and another blinking cursor which the users of the software would think as a "point of input" for key-presses. And when they do, they get frustrated why its not inserting text. Is there a way to hide this blinking cursor? Off hand, the only way for me to hide it is to change this Scrolled' background to black to match the color of this blinking cursor.. but black background is not suitable for this application. thanks. Dan
