FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What the Text Cursor icon means and where it's used, then how to install, style, label and license it.
The text-cursor icon represents text editing mode and insertion point indicators in content editing applications. Featuring the classic I-beam cursor shape with decorative serifs, this symbol indicates text input fields, editable content areas, and the active editing states essential for word processors, content management systems, and form input interfaces.
In text editing applications like Google Docs and Notion, I-beam cursor representations appear in toolbar buttons for text mode activation and editing state indicators. Design tools including Figma and Sketch display it when switching to text editing mode from other tool states, while form builders such as Typeform and JotForm use it to indicate text input field types and editable content areas.
From a user interaction perspective, the I-beam cursor communicates more than text input capability—it represents editable content, the active writing state that distinguishes input-ready fields from static display text, and the precise character positioning that enables users to place text at exact insertion points within existing content.
Text Cursor is one of 1,655 icons in Lucide, made by Lucide Contributors and released under ISC. It is drawn on a 24 × 24 grid with a 2 stroke.
Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds TextCursorIcon to components/icons/lucide-text-cursor.tsx: one file, a size prop (24 by default) and every SVG prop, with no icon package.
Copy it as React (from Get icon, or the Code section): a typed TextCursorIcon component you paste into your project, with no package to install. Only the icons you import reach your bundle. It works in Next.js and any React app.
Yes, if your project has lucide-react: Text Cursor is `TextCursorIcon` there, used as <TextCursorIcon />. The shadcn.io MCP server answers with that import when it finds the package. Without it, copy the icon from here.
Open Get icon, then Copy as code, and pick Vue, Svelte, Angular, Solid or Preact; the Code section shows each one too. Every version is one self-contained component with the SVG inside, and SVG and data URL copies are there for plain HTML and CSS.
With Pro, the shadcn.io MCP server lets Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client find the Text Cursor icon, or any of 1,655 Lucide icons, and install it from a prompt.
It's drawn in currentColor, so it takes the text color wherever you use it: a class like text-primary recolors it. To bake a color in, set one in Customize before you copy.
Set width and height on the component, or a class like size-6. It's drawn on a 24 × 24 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation, and its stroke.
Text Cursor is a line icon drawn with a stroke width of 2. Change it in Customize before you copy, or pass strokeWidth to the installed component when all of its strokes share one width.
Yes. It follows the text color, so with text-foreground (or any theme token) it changes with your light and dark themes. The icon is a vector, so it needs no separate dark asset.
Next to a visible label it's decoration: add aria-hidden="true" so screen readers skip it. Standing alone, as in an icon button, give the button a name instead, like aria-label="Text Cursor", so screen readers say what it does.
Yes. TextCursorIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <TextCursorIcon aria-hidden="true" /> works, and so do role="img" with aria-label, or a title child, when it carries meaning on its own.
Yes. Open Get icon, then Download file: SVG for code or design tools like Figma; PNG, WebP or JPEG at 512px; or an ICO favicon with 16, 32 and 48px inside. Each one uses what you set in Customize.
Yes. ISC allows commercial use; keep the license notice when you ship the icons' source files. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.
No visible credit is required: ISC only asks that you keep the license notice if you ship the icons' source files. Icons installed with the shadcn CLI already start with a comment naming Lucide, Lucide Contributors and the license.
Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.
Its tags are editing, text, input, cursor, caret and insertion. Each tag page lists the icons that carry it from every library, which is the quickest way to find a match for Text Cursor in another set.
