Trying to configure a custom caret color..Here is what I have done so far but had no result in a successful output..

I have dowloaded the PackageResourceViewer and gone into my theme and changed the <key>caret</key> <string>#F8F8F0</string> to my own custom hex color.

Once this is done I then overwrite the current theme by choosing save as and restarting Sublime Text. After restart, I see no change made to the caret...Hmmm

I have also followed this post on How do I edit the Solarized (Light) theme in Sublime Text 3

Any one have and suggestions? I would greatly appreciate your help.

When you say you "gone into your theme", did you open or extract? By open, you are essentially viewing a read-only version, so saving it doesn't do anything really.

If you do extract it, try saving it into your user folder, then make sure you choose it via the preferences menu

  • Thax for your advise, In `extract` i select theme by pressing enter and nothing happens..How should I extract properly? – brent_white Mar 06 '15 at 02:17
  • It copies the package to `Sublime Text 3\Packages\xxx`, then you have to use browse packages to find the file. – Ryan B Mar 08 '15 at 21:43
