Cursor too tall

This problem just started in my new manuscript. For some reason my cursor is huge for the first six or seven rows of text in each document, and then it goes down to a normal size after that. I’m writing in double space. It is so distracting! Any help would be appreciated.

Do you have super/subscript text in the first few rows? Giant cursors when lines have “non-standard” spacing is a known behavior of the Mac text system that Scrivener uses.

Thank you for the reply! I went into Format>Font>Baseline to see, and no, I do not have super/subscript text anywhere. If you know of a different place to check to see if I have some sort of formatting thing going on please let me know.
