Cursor should provide feedback that QTextEdit is in overwrite mode

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      Currently, a QTextEdit's cursor looks the same whether or not the QTextEdit is in overwrite mode. It would be nice if the cursor provided some visual feedback depending on the overwrite mode.

      In OpenOffice Writer, for example, the cursor highlights the character that will be overwritten when in overwrite mode.
