      Is anyone else having this experience? I go up to the Control panel to do some math in one of the fields, and when I click where I want to start typing, no cursor appears. Sure, I can go ahead and type what I want to, next to the text that’s already there, but I find it unnerving not to see a cursor to assure me that I am beginning to type where I plan to.
      This isn’t limited to the XY, Width, Height, etc. fields — there’s no cursor when I click in the fields of any dialog boxes, either. I understand the concept of faith, but not when it comes to this kind of thing.
      I know I can tab from field to field, but I don’t always want to select the contents of the next field and replace them entirely. Any insights on what is going on?

      I have the same problem. Played around with it today and saw that it has to do with what color I choose in the settings of InDesign. I like the white one and there it is impossible to see the cursor but if I change to dark or black it works fine. I also tried to delete the preferens file for indesign but it did not help. Would be nice to se what you are doing in all color settings though.

      This will be dealt with in a future update
