Highlight your cursor and clicks

Use cursor options to draw attention to actions on a web page.

How to use the cursor options

The toolbar uses icons instead of text labels. Hover over an icon for a moment and its name appears.

1. Select the mouse pointer icon (Toggle cursor options) on the toolbar. The icon changes to match the option you pick.
2. Choose Highlight clicks, Highlight cursor, or Spotlight cursor. Hold Shift while you select to combine more than one effect.
3. Select Default (the plain pointer) to return to the regular pointer.

Toggle cursor options has no default shortcut, but you can assign one in Chrome. See keyboard shortcuts.

These effects apply within supported browser pages. They do not follow the cursor into other applications.

To spotlight an area after recording instead, see Blur and spotlight an area in the web editor.
