Cursor options
Click the Allow blinking cursor checkbox if you want your host cursor to blink. Your cursor can blink as an underscore or a block. You can specify this in the Screen option of the Session Properties window.

-
- Click the Blinking Text radio button if you want all fields with the blink attribute to blink.
- Click the Host Color radio button if you want all the fields with the blink attribute to stop blinking and display the default host color for that field.
- Click the Mapped Color radio button if you want all the fields with
the blink attribute to stop blinking and display the field in the
selected (mapped) color.

This window provides a variety of color selections capable of producing a range of contrast levels and allows you to select custom colors based on their numerical values for hue/saturation/brightness values and/or red/green/blue values.
If your text disappears, it could be mapped to the same color as your background. Select a different color. - Click OK to accept changes made and return to the session. Click Cancel to cancel all changes and return to the session.
