Adjust Volume for mouse tool
Jan 21, 2019
I am working on a course where the user learns how to use software by first watching a video and then doing a few practice exercises. Some of the practice exercise timelines have a mouse cursor automatically clicking on the screen.
Here is my question: is it possible to adjust the volume of the "clicking" sound when using the mouse tool? It seems much louder than the video slides. I have set the publish quality to "Optimize Audio Volume".

Hi Marie-Claude!
While there isn't a way to adjust the click volume, you can remove the click sound completely. Simply click on the mouse, and click None on the Mouse Tools Format tab.
If you'd like to share more about why a mouse click volume tool would be helpful for you, please share your thoughts with us through a feature request here.
Thanks Alyssa,
I opted to raise the volume of the videos to match the audio level of the mouse tool.
That's a smart workaround! Thanks for the update, Marie-Claude.
I agree that it would be great to be able to adjust the volume on these mouse clicks. Consider adding this as a feature. Thanks!
Thanks, Kate.

I, too, just got a request for quieter mouse clicks. And, to be honest, they're not wrong. I think I just got used to them. The volume of the mouse clicks could probably be lowered by 50%, I'm guessing. For, now, I'll have to remove them.
Hi Ron,
We do have a feature request for the ability to adjust the mouse click volume, so this is on our radar. I have added your comments to the request, and we will be sure to update you with any news should this make it onto our features roadmap.
