I am on a mac, having a good time with Cursor, but these last 2 days I som how got stuck in whats called overwrite mode (OVR) where the object depth is shown at the top and when i move the cursor ■■■■ square, and when cursor is placed at the end of the line, press enter just returns to the start of the line. Some searches indicate press the insert key. but this doesn’t exist on a mac, and i added a plug in to make it work, but it keeps reverting to ovr mode. this is so annoying, and so I as, does any one have a clue on what the cause is? and how to revert it? I deleted the settings file, but still the same after a restart. I will try reinstalling, but this is seriously annoying.
Further. I did a full reinstall, after Deleting Cursor and removing the library/app support/cursor folder. but the problem is still there. I am sure its some issue with the mac, but cant find it yet. It might be a key combination the cat pressed when walking on my keyboard, but it only has the over write effect in cursor, I try Sublime and VSCode, and they both don’t have this issue.
I try other projects, and same result, for example, end of the line, press enter, cursor moves to next line, but does not add a line feed.
These are all the clues i have so far. when i find the solution, how ever stupid it makes me look, i will update this. in case someone else encounters it.
OK, Removed all plugins and reinstalled 1 by 1, but it would appear the VIM for VSCode caused the problem. So if you encounter this issue, try removing some og the plugins to find to culprit.
