Hey everyone, just started playing around with SilverBullet this evening. I’m really liking it so far!
I wanted to share a little CSS snippet that will make the cursor thicker and more aesthetic, similar to apps like iA Writer.
Add this block to any page in your space to see how it looks. (I’m attaching a screenshot as well). One thing I’ll also mention is that it was much easier to get this working in Silver Bullet than in Obsidian. For some reason in Obsidian you can’t directly style the cm-cursor and you have to use some type of a plug-in JavaScript hack that hides the cursor and then draws a secondary cursor on top of it. So I’m really happy about the fact that I was able to add this styling so easily..
.cm-cursor {
border-left: 3px solid #007AFF !important;
border-right: none !important;
margin-left: -1px !important;
/* Make it taller - add padding top and bottom */
padding-top: 2px !important;
padding-bottom: 2px !important;
margin-top: -2px !important; /* Compensate for padding to keep alignment */
/* Round the corners */
border-radius: 0.7px !important;
/* Optional: Add a subtle glow effect */
box-shadow: 0 0 3px rgba(0, 122, 255, 0.4) !important;
}
