Cursor in Record Screen

Hi all,

I'd like to ask for assistance in setting up the cursor in the Record Screen function.

I need a big red cursor in my course - the default is a small white Windows cursor - then Record Screen with it, so that I don't have to change the cursor on each slide manually. I've been testing the options, and this is what I have found.

  • You can change the color in Windows Accessibility Settings, Articulate Storyline will fuse it to the Cursor Gallery.
  • It works only with the color; the size of the cursor always stays the same no matter if I choose otherwise.
  • We can upload whatever cursor we want in the Cursor Gallery and use it (I applied the aero_arrow_xl white cursor from the Windows library), but Record Screen can't use it as a Default Cursor so it would be manual work again, slide by slide.

Conclusion: We can have a normal red cursor as a default.

I might Record the Screen without Mouse Movement and add it manually on each slide using Big Red Cursor.

Question to an expert: Can I set up a default cursor in the Cursor Gallery for the Record Screen option? Is there a walkaround to it?

Thank you in advance,

Jacek
