Android Studio : How to change default cursor style and behavior?
At last I found solution of my problem :)
So, following is the fix for it:
File - > Settings -> Editor (IDE Settings) -> Appearance-> Then uncheck Use Block caret
There are two ways to do this 1. The first is to go through the settings to change it That is, File >> Settings >> Editor >> Appearance >> Use block caret ( should be unchecked )
- On Windows press the fn + ins
press the insert button once. It will be fine for every type of programming editors like Android Studio, Dev C++ etc.
Other than the answers there is another case which could lead to this situation. I accidently installed IdeaVIM plugin to my IDE, and that caused it to have cursor in overtype mode. Disabling that plugin solved my problem.
To disable a plugin go to File -> Settings -> Plugins -> Installed and then uncheck the plugin you want to disable.
