When I rename a directory, the background color is white, text color is black, but the blinking Keyboard cursor color is also white or it is invisible !! So I am not able to position the cursor for renaming. I am using a custom theme "Ambience Dark" (11.04's Default). How can I change the cursor color so that it is in contrast with the rename background ?

Are you using some custom theme?– user25656Jun 26, 2013 at 12:27

Yes, Ambience Dark(11.04 Default Theme). But even if I switch back to original theme in 12.04, there is no change. Still the rename cursor is invisible. I have to type to know where the cursor is !!– mythicalcoderJun 26, 2013 at 12:29

1Also, see if this helps you: askubuntu.com/questions/284848/… You can choose a color for the "I-beam" cursor.– user25656Jun 26, 2013 at 12:30

Solved, but it was some kind of magic !! I just changed the aspect ratio to 0.5 and it worked. But thereafter cursor is visible even if I delete the aspect ratio or change it to any value !!!– mythicalcoderJun 26, 2013 at 12:41

Solved. I had to add a line to this css file ~/.themes/theme_name/gtk-3.0/gtk-widgets.css
-GtkWidget-cursor-aspect-ratio: 0.3
But thereafter, the cursor stays visible even if I remove the above line !!
