Text Cursor has Changed for Some Reason

[menace97]

I have recently noticed that when editing text documents in BC3 that the text cursor has changed. I distinctly remember it being the typical vertical line (flashing) common in most applications today, but for some reason any time I compare and edit a text file I am presented with the old-fashioned block solid rectangle (inverting the pixels of the character it it placed).

I have no idea what I changed. I have looked through the many options in BC3 and couldn't seem to find anything that would offer an alternative form of text cursor, so I went back to an older system state (I religiously use Acronis backup imaging method of my main hard drive). Strangely, the issue persisted. So I went back further to when it was absolutely not an issue. Same thing. I even tried importing my preferences which I had exported a while ago when BC3 was in a state that was ideal for me.

Am I losing it? Or was this not the way it was (vertical flashing line)?

I have not tried reverting all preferences to the default, or uninstalling and reinstalling a fresh copy of BC3 - I thought I would ask on the forums before I do anything further.

Thanks for any insight! Much appreciated.
