hello,
complete SublimeText noob here - just trying demo so far. i like it a lot but there’s one thing that’s just gnawing at me that i can’t figure out…
in my experience, on Mac, the mouse’s text cursor, the I-Beam, will place the insertion point between the top & bottom of the pipe (never really understood the point of the little cross bar that’s aprox mid-way on the pipe). so this is what i’m used to, & am pretty fast at moving around.
but in SublimeText 3 demo, the insertion point comes from the space between the little cross bar & the top of the pipe! so if you’re eyeball puts the ibeam’s little mid-way cross bar just above the top of a lowercase character, the insertion point ends up on the line above where you wanted it to be. (hopefully i’m explaining that well)…
sounds like a little thing, i know, but when you’re moving fast going off of muscle memory, you can imagine the mess i’m making!!
so is there any way to change where the I-Beam mouse icon places it’s insertion point? or change the height of the ibeam to be more lineheight accurate?
now, this brings up a bit of a sidenote, but still frustrating…
after spending quite a bit of time (too much) searching for the right words to use to search for about this, i discovered a lot of people using the word “caret” in places that made it more confusing. upon further reading it would seem that SublimeText uses the word “caret” in place of “cursor” &/or “i-beam” &/or “insertion point”. WTH 
a caret is a ^.
whatever.
anyways, anybody got any thoughts on all this mess?
thanks.
