macOS Sonoma caps lock indicator does not follow line focus

Apple introduced a caps lock indicator system-wide in their macOS Sonoma release, usually it follows your text input. Except for in Studio it is stuck in the center of my screen

This doesn’t happen to me, I think you may have dragged it there or something because I don’t even thing that Apple exposes APIs for controlling the indicator apart from enable and disable.

Thank you for reporting this. We’ll look into the issue, though we might not be able to fix this one if it can’t be controlled per application.

In the meantime it looks like it can be turned off from the Terminal:

or
sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/FeatureFlags/Domain/UIKit.plist redesigned_text_cursor -dict-add Enabled -bool NO

You are a life saver, seems like Apple added this and nobody asked for it!
