FR: Double Colored Text-Cursor

[BananenRitter]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

• The Text-Cursor seems to always have the same Color disregarding the Background. If the User chooses colors which are close to HEX: d5d5d5 the cursor is nearly invisible.
• Coincidentally are the colors, after using the inversion script, near this value.

Describe the solution you'd like

The cursor should have an inner (HEX: 000000) & outer color (HEX: FFFFFF) to make it perfecly visible under all conditions, the increased width by using 2 layers would also make it more likely to be seen.

Furthermore you could the User choose their own primary & secondary colors to enable lime green+magenta colored cursor for maximum visibility

Real-life usage scenarios

Every User which doesnt use pre defined color palette

Describe alternatives you've considered

Alternatives to finding cursor:

• Zoom in a lot
• type a letter then delete it again
• shift+arrow to select some text

I also struggle with the cursor color at times...

Unfortunately, HTML alone does not natively support a double-colored text cursor. The browser's text cursor (caret) is controlled by the operating system and rendered as a single-color element.

The cursor color is based on the canvas color if you have dynamic color enabled:

On second thought... I implemented a solution. Try 2.6.8-beta-2, if you have dynamic styling enabled then cursor color will follow the inverse of the background color where you created the text element
