How to force vim cursor always shape Block

I use astronvim for nvim config, but it change the cursor to bar when in insert mode. Is there a way to force the cursor to be block at any mode?

I try to find some help in vim manual, :help cursor, but I can't find anything helpful.

Solution

  • Add set guicursor= to your init.vim.

    Citing Neovim FAQ:

    For Nvim 0.2 or newer: cursor styling is controlled by the guicursor option.

    • To disable cursor-styling, set guicursor to empty:
    set guicursor=
" Workaround some broken plugins which set guicursor indiscriminately.
:autocmd OptionSet guicursor noautocmd set guicursor=
