Emphasizing Selected Visual Information


If you want to bring everyone's attention to a certain object in a screen display, you can have the system display the position of your mouse cursor to session attendees.

To make your mouse cursor visible to session attendees

  1. Choose Presentation > Pointer On or click the Pointer On button on the toolbar.
  2. When this option is in use, each attendee sees the position of your mouse cursor as an icon. When this option is not in use, your cursor is not visible to session attendees.

    NOTE:  On the instructor's computer, the cursor appearance does not change when the Pointer On option is selected. To check the cursor status, from the Presentation menu, note whether or not a check mark is displayed next to Pointer On.

  3. If you want to change the icon that accompanies the mouse cursor, complete the following steps.
    1. Choose Options > Personal Info.
    2. The Personal Info tab of the Options dialog box appears.

    3. Click the Browse button next to the Mouse Pointer field and select a graphic to personalize the mouse cursor that is displayed whenever you make your cursor visible. You can also use your own customized pointer by importing a .bmp file and selecting it.
    4. Click OK.
