Cool!
Well, How to activate block caret in Vintage?
Thanks.
Thanks Jon. Any chance you could take a look at the line wrapping behaviour with punctuation and caret movement, they’re a real PITA for editing plaintext (prose) in Sublime and hopefully are a fairly trivial fix. Obviously this applies particularly when editing text/prose (ie. plaintext) and arguably some of this makes less sense in a programming context. Perhaps the new wrapping rules could be applied through a config setting per-User or per-Filetype, so that users could configure this behaviour for their own filetypes.
Examples.
sometext (
see below)
Should be:
sometext
(see below)
And without the space after “sometext”:
sometext(
see below)
Should be:
<wrap entirely>
sometext(see below)
TIA
ps. Like the new block caret. Can we optionally have this one outside Vintage too? Thought I’d ask first

You must have turned on “highlight current line”
Arjan: I deleted your post as I’m not prepared to put up with rude messages on the forum. I replied earlier today in regards to your issue in another thread.
I can’t get the block cursor to work. Anyone got it working? What are the exact steps you took?
Hi,
Just upgraded to 3054, but it seems that these issues still remain (nothing changed from the previous build).
Thanks anyway though. =)
Finally a block cursor!
I noticed the block caret is only visible in some themes. Mind you I’m not sure what I saw was actually the block caret. It was rather both the ‘wide’ caret and some form of background highlight. Tested with both Vintage and Vintageous. Perhaps someone could post a screenshot?
Been waiting for this feature for a while, can’t wait to have it land in ST3. Thanks for the efforts!
Block cursor outside of vintage.

It looks like it keys off the selection color.
You may need to disable line highlighting to see it if you have it enabled. I don’t know if there is a way to make them work together; haven’t really played with it much.
Yeah for me (with Solarized Light) it doesn’t work with highlight_line on and the simple inversion makes the text under the cursor near unreadable.
It would be awesome if it would honor the same settings as SublimeBlockCursor: github.com/netpro2k/SublimeBloc … figuration
Nice find facelessuser…
Unfortunately there are some wrinkles; it only works in insert mode, and seems to change the caret to an underline for insert and a normal, vertical caret for overtype. Whereas without this pref, the caret behaves opposite ie. vertical for insert and underline for overtype.
Also, deleting the pref doesn’t revert to old behaviour without restarting Sublime, unless it’s explicitly set “false” in which case the caret types remain swapped (underline for insert, vertical bar for overtype) until restart.
Really like this style of block cursor. What would be very nice:
@qgates, yeah, I was looking at it from the standpoint of someone who doesn’t use vintage mode. I poked around and found the setting. I figured I would post it for those who don’t use vintage but want a block cursor. For those the non-vintage users, I imagine it would be something that would get set once, and then you forget about it.
An update YAY! Most wanted features of these months(?) without updates:
Everything works really great here B-)
I’ve had a problem with indexing, but it was my fault, one of the folders in the project was updated with new files constantly, and that triggered the indexing multiple times keeping the CPU usage high. Maybe adding the ability to blacklist certain folders from the index…
Ahh, I’ve a problem, a real one, the sidebar selection is problematic a non intuitive. Almost all the times when selecting multiples files, you will end with at least one selected file or folder that you don’t want in the selection… the selection of the sidebar is lost every time we focus a file, that is…!! a bug. Imagine you switch of tab and you lost your buffer selection… I feel exactly that.
Loving the block cursor! It was really worth the wait
It would be great if we could set the background colour in the theme using a different key and only use selection colour as the fallback. Btw, it doesn’t seem to work on scopes with a background colour.
This is not a block cursor, this is a kludge hack effect to simulate a block cursor.
Nice to see Jon adding even this though as people have been asking for a block cursor for a while. It would be nicer if we had an actual block cursor eventually
The hide menu function looks to be working great.
It was glitzy at first (menu overlapping the tabs, etc.), but I narrowed down the issue to a plugin (WakaTime) that must be doing something strange with the menu.
You can already do this via adding ,-path/to/ignore/
(ending with a ‘/’ is important) in the “where” field.
Can you explain this a little more? Where is „where” field? Are you suggesting having something like this (in settings file) ?
"folder_exclude_patterns": "-.git/" ]
Thanks.
Not responding to paying customers in reasonable time is also considered rude by some…
