Make cursor display in Azure Powershell

[shamglam]

I tried searching on the issue list for this, but couldn't find any reference or reason why. But would it be possible to make the cursor visible default in the azure powershell window, because it is visible by default in regular powershell windows.

If not, what is the reason for it being hidden?

I know I can probably update a profile file and make it visible but doing this many places is annoying.

Need clarity on this before anyone can take action on it ....

• How do you reproduce the behavior?
• What does the missing cursor look like? (screenshots are often helpful)
• Why are you assuming this is a problem with Azure PowerShell?
• What other modules do you have installed and/or imported?
• Do you have a profile script(s) defined?

Hey guys, I can still see the issue.
There has been solutions posted..

I am using azure power shell 0.9.5
Repro is just that I opened the powershell and I don't see any blinking cursor.

After setting cursor size, I see blinking cursor now

Can we reopen this or create new one?

This happens all the time for me and is quite frustrating.

@yaananth seems like this would be a cool pull request. Are you interested?

I think you need to give the default Cursor size.

Fixed in dev branch (#936). Will be available in the upcoming release.
