The cursor is a blinking vertical line that appears wherever a user types text, such as in text editors, word processing documents, Internet browsers, and so on. When a user types something the cursor always precedes the text.

If you want to indicate the text cursor with two small bobbles above and below it, you can use the “Text Cursor Indicator.” Here, indicators always follow the text cursor.
