Hide that mouse!?

Hi David,

It sounds like you've inserted the screen recording in a step-by-step mode? You won't be able to change it's starting point, but you can remove it all together or change where it ends by clicking on the mouse icon and dragging it around your screen. You could also remove that mouse cursor, and add in one of your own. 

Once the mouse icon has appeared and clicked, I can't find a way to fade the mouse arrow/icon out. Is there a way?

Hi Ann,

There isn't a way to change the mouse animation within a screen recording to into a fade option. If you're inserting a mouse as described here, you should be able to apply animations to it as well, and please take note that there are different animations between SL1 and SL2. 

I just want the mouse I inserted as an "Interaction Object" to go away after it has demonstrated what I want.  Are we talking about the same thing?  ie, enter, click, and then fade out.

Hi Dick,

We may not be - and if you'd like to share your .story file here with us using the "add attachment" button we're happy to take a look at the set up and offer thoughts based on that. 

Hi Dick,

I have the same issue. Once the mouse is inserted on the timeline, it will not go away on that slide even if the time is set to display for 2 seconds (and the rest continues for say 15 seconds). I have tried to move the layer down so it is covered by other graphics but it also automatically moves to the top layer. I will move it down, then it auto moves to the top. How do I get this to stop??

Hi Cathy!

I'm not seeing where Dick shared his file for us to take a look, so I'm not sure if he reached resolution or not. 

Do you have a .story file that you would like us to take a look at?

Absolutely! You can share privately here.

It's on it's way!

Thanks for the update. I see your case submission (00746264) and you should be hearing from someone shortly. I'll follow along as well.
