Subject: Cursors:  Is superimposing the same glyph a feature?
Date: Fri, 15 Feb 2019 08:27:32 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <m236op10gb.wl%esq@lawlist.com> (raw)

I am working on feature requests 22873 (multiple fake cursors) and 17684 (visible crosshairs that track the cursor position, and a visible fill column indicator).

When draw_phys_cursor_glyph (w, glyph_row, DRAW_CURSOR) happens, the background of a glyph is _not_ filled (i.e, !s->background_filled_p).  This is presumably for a situation such as a FILLED_BOX_CURSOR so as not to erase the colored rectangle around the glyph.

In the case of an HBAR_CURSOR; however, the result is a second imprint of the same glyph -- creating a bold appearance of the glyph with the cursor.  Is the bold appearance "a feature", or is this something that has just been overlooked?

Thanks,

Keith
