[Closed] Question about Names for some color options.

(1/3) > >>

Martin_fr:
If you opened the IDE options, and (in the option for the editor) you would find Color-picker (drop-downs) with the following names:
"Main Caret"
"Other Carets"

What would you think they do?

Martin_fr:

Ideally answer this WITHOUT reading other replies.

I would have no clue as to what "Other Carets" refer to.
I would think that "Main Caret" is just the caret in the IDE (the blinking thing that indicates where I am typing).
Never felt the need to set a color for that though.

Lansdowne:
Without reading Bart's reply, my answer would have been exactly the same.  Plus I would remark that the word "caret" is not very well known and "blinking thing that indicates where I am typing" should be used as standard  :) 

Zvoni:
This kind of reminds me of streetsigns i've seen in France at a crossroad:
One streetsign pointing left says "All directions"
The other streetsign pointing right says "other Directions"
Duh?!?
