I'd like to change the overtype shape of the StyledTextCtrl caret. But I cannot find where there is a listing of the available STC_CARETSTYLE_* `` constants?

Thank you...

In [8]: from wx import stc as s

 

In [9]: mems = dir(s)

 

In [10]: [m for m in mems if m.startswith("STC_CARETSTYLE")]

Out[10]: ['STC_CARETSTYLE_BLOCK', 'STC_CARETSTYLE_INVISIBLE', 'STC_CARETSTYLE_LINE']

Your code is not formatted correctly in the email reply but it looks like there are only three choices?

I got your code to run and indeed see three choices. Thanks.

Hmmm...seems like I can only set the caret style for insert mode? I don't see any way to set the shape for overtype mode? Is that true or am I missing something?
