Kind of wish It had more color options. I love using it, I some time hard to see the cursor when writing a document the color helps a lot when I space out on assignments.

I know this page is for reviews and all, but google doesn't really give a support or forum page, so this is really the only place I have to ask this. If you are having the white cursor problem, please respond to this with your extensions, and the result of the instructions below, thank you. Open up console (Ctrl + Shift + I) with the extension enabled, click on console in the side panel that shows up, then paste in the below code and press enter, console.log(document.getElementsByClassName("kix-cursor-caret")[0].getAttribute("style")) Once thats done, a line of text will appear right underneath where that line was pasted, copy it. Then to close the panel, click the X in the top right corner of the page.
