When the mouse cursor hovers over text (other than hypertext?) that can be edited or copied , the cursor appears as an I-Beam insertion bar.
In gtk2
, it's possible to alter the width and color of the I-beam by merely editing a couple of lines in my theme's gtkrc
file like this:
GtkWidget::cursor-color = "red"
GtkWidget::cursor_aspect_ratio = 0.2
Is there something similar available for gtk3
themes? (Apparently such a feature isn't yet available in qt apps.)
I'm using Lubuntu 12.10.

The file to be edited is
gtk-widgets.css
inusr/share/themes/theme_name/gtk-3.0
or in~/.themes/theme_name/gtk-3.0
. To adjust the width, the code to be inserted is this:or other suitable value.
