Set Accessibility Preferences

You can set caret positions in the editors. Carets are user defined points that blink when a user hovers over the line at which the caret is set. Caret positions identify the location of a mouse cursor and help track the mouse cursor position on the program listing.

To set accessibility preferences for text editors

1. Select Window, Preferences.

   The Preferences dialog opens.

2. Expand General, Editors, Text Editors and select Accessibility.

   The Preferences dialog opens the Accessibility page.

3. Change the default settings for the following fields to suit your needs:
   • Use custom caret

     Allows CA SymDump to use custom caret tracking. Checking this box activates the Enable thick caret check box.

     • Enable thick caret

       Specifies that thick carets can be used for custom caret tracking. Check the box if you want to use this option.

   • Use characters to show changes in vertical ruler

     Indicates that characters can be used on the vertical ruler to denote carets. Check the box if you want to use this option.

4. Click Apply to save the settings. Click OK.

CA SymDump saves the changes and closes the Preferences dialog. The changes are used in all succeeding logon sessions unless you change the preferences again.

Note: You can restore the default configuration settings anytime on the Preferences dialog. To restore the default settings, click Restore Defaults, click Apply, and then click OK.
