Have you completed the change over now, Klondie?

Cor,  that takes me back, Muddy.   
I used to love that . . . .  and Lassie Come Home.  

It's sad those sort of things don't seem to be on for telly for small kids any more..

 

It's gets worse .....


?

I think it has to be windows. Oddly I'm not seeing it now either here (where that screenshot was made) or over on Dev. Curiouser and curiouser. I'll ask Gemini.

Obviously the know all knew..

That purple/magenta teardrop marker with the pin is the Windows Text Cursor Indicator, an accessibility feature built into Windows designed to make the text caret easier to spot.

Why It Appeared and Disappeared

Application Compatibility: The indicator hooks into modern text fields (such as web browsers and modern Notepad) via the Windows text rendering APIs. This explains why it appeared in your forum's Quick Reply and Notepad, but did not show up in legacy console apps like cmd.exe or your 16-bit KEDIT program, which bypass modern OS text overlays.

Check out this for a quick visual walkthrough of where to find and manage this setting.

yes except mine is blue and pin points upwards.     It's not a problem at all. just sayin.......

I think you mean this....




It's some Windows thing that Bill tought you might like. It's probably possible to get rid of it but I don't know how and haven't bothered finding out. It appears on the current forum too,
