VSCode Version: 1.3.0-Insider OS Version: MacOSX 10.11.5 Steps to Reproduce: document with long lines (longer then screen width to the right and move the cursor to accordingly -Cursor is invisible
Unless I'm misunderstanding the issue, this is expected behaviour. How would you expect the editor to behave? This happens on every editor. If you'd like your long line to wrap, you can control that by setting the configuration to .
No, this has nothing to do with wrapping long lines. My cursor is literally invisible: !
Interesting, but I still can't reproduce... Can you provide a screencast or similar?
Where is your focus? The cursor blinks/is rendered only when the editor is focused
I tried reproducing it with new files, but I'm unable to. This happens with a few xsl files at work. I'll try to see if I can get a 100% reproducible file. The focus is in the active editor. I'm only moving the cursor to the right. Screencast: ! EDIT: The cursor is only visible for as long as it doesn't surpass the last character that was visible in the initial view region of the editor
Thank you for the gif! I've never seen that before. Do you see any errors in the console () ? I've quickly tried with a file with these contents but could not reproduce: Other things that might be relevant: does this reproduce when running code without extensions (close it completely and launch with ), did you customize the font and/or picked a different theme?
I found a way to reliably reproduce this issue. The missing piece was, that it only happens when you have split the main editor. I can't reproduce it with just one editor visible. Launching with doesn't help. I did try with the default user settings and theme as well, but without success. I managed to nail it down to the following steps to reproduce this issue: vscode random file (doesn't matter) the editor with (this is important) random code/text with long lines in one of the 2 editor panels
Forgot to mention: unfortunately there are no errors in the devtools console.
I'm also seeing this issue. VS Code 1.3.0 commit Windows 10.0.

Edit: Oops, didn't notice that a fix was already committed yesterday.
can you try my solution in ?
Yes, but disabling extensions doesn't help. This issue only occurs when you have more than a single editor view. See:
We decided to fix this by removing the property from the tabs container. The visual impact is that if you use a theme that introduces a custom background color, it will only be picked up for the active tab. E.g. for our themes "red" and "abyss": ! ! To verify: be on windows have 2 groups open at least have enough tabs open to cause scrolling activate a tab that is at the end of the tab list in group one find a long line and arrow right verify the cursor is not lost
can I ask you to verify this on Windows using this 1.3.1 stable build: Thanks!
I verified this.
