How do I change cursor shape?
I have tried change cursor setting in settings json file to "solid",it does not react.

You've gotten far enough as to find the code, build the code, and find out that there's a cursorShape setting, and that's all fine and well...

The cursor shapes are filledBox, emptyBox, bar, underscore, and vintage.

@DHowett-MSFT Which file should I see to list of values of settings?

@KiYugadgeter I'm sure you could figure out how to search some text files for the words that Dustin listed above, no? :)

Can I change the thickness of cursor if I set the cursorShape as "bar"?

[SanePai]

Is there a way I can change the thickness of the cursor? I like it a bit thicker than "bar" and less than "filledBox".

@SanePai Check out the cursorHeight setting

I tried that. It works only with the "vintage" shape and a height of 100 is just the same as the "filledBox" shape.

Okay did you try other cursor heights? Like, 25 will be smaller than a filled box...

Yeah. I did.
But that reduces the vertical dimension. I prefer mine full-sized vertically. I wanted to change the width of the cursor.

Ah, that's where the miscommunication was. I read "thickness" as "height". My bad!

We're tracking that feature request over in #3167

Oh okay. np.
Thanks. Ill keep an eye on that.
