PointerStick

Virtual pointer stick for presentations

Description

Projected on a big screen, the normal mouse arrow is a thin needle and the back row can't tell what you're pointing at; screen recordings and livestreams have the same problem. PointerStick hangs an eye-catching virtual pointer stick on the cursor that follows it everywhere, so viewers see exactly where you mean.

It is a single file of about 700 KB with no installer, so you can carry it on a USB stick and run it on a meeting-room PC. It is especially handy during PowerPoint presentations.

Features



Adjustable size: choose the length and thickness to suit the screen and viewing distance.

Several textures: a few built-in stick styles so you can match your slides.

Alpha transparency: make it semi-transparent so it doesn't completely hide the text underneath.

Auto-disable on input: optionally switch it off when you move the mouse or press a key.

Hide the system cursor: hide the normal arrow and leave only the stick.

Portable: no installation; put a PointerStick.ini in its folder to keep your settings.
