How to change Vim text pointer size in insert mode?

Question

Does anyone have any idea how to change the thickness of the text pointer in gVim in insert mode? I'm using it on Windows, so maybe there's a Windows trick that may do the job.

Right now it's about 3px wide, whereas I want it 1px wide.

Check out :help gcr for full details. You'll probably want to edit your existing setting, but here's what worked for me:

set gcr=...,i-ci:ver10-Cursor/lCursor,...

The ... represents the values that were there before, for the other modes.
