Disable TextBox Cursor

#1

Is there a way to disable or make the TextBox native text cursor to be invisible, since I wanna use custom blinking cursor. Thanks!

#2

I don’t think you can really do that. The maximum you probably can do is probably set the default cursor to an invisible decal or the blinking cursor you’re using.

Idk though.

Wait, you can set TextBox Cursor decal?

#4

Uhh, no.

I mean the default roblox mouse cursor.

But if you’re talking abt the textbox cursor(the line), I don’t think you can do that.

You’ll probably have to make your own custom textbox system. Again idk.

From what I tried all you can do is either:

  • Overlay the cursor with whatever you want to and just making sure you can’t see the one underneath
  • Make another text box with no editing enabled and no interaction enabled, make the cursor follow the original’s position as you would normally and then modify selection start/cursor position also following the original.

Here’s an example place of what I mean in the second option:
