View Full Version : Cursor "I" beam hard to see in Mtext box!

Has anyone noticed that while typing text in an Mtext box that when the cursor changes to the standard "I" beam it becomes almost impossible to see. I've noticed this in quite a few versions of acad software. I don't use Mtext very often so I'm not sure if there is a fix for this or whether I have to just live with the "Invisible" cursor beam! I'm currently using Acad 2002 on win 2000 pro. TIA!

Maybe look at changing your Model and/or Layout tab background colour as this is the colour used within the Multiline Text Editor.

Have a good one, Mike
