When annotating at the board some users find the cursor for the Pen tool to be distracting. Other users find it useful for indicating where on the flipchart page they will be annotating.
In order to accommodate both these preferences there is a setting to allow you to control how the cursor is displayed. This setting is saved with the current profile. This gives you the flexibility to have the cursor displayed for certain profiles and hidden for others. For example, you may want to switch the cursor off when using the At the Board profile but keep it displayed when using the Authoring profile.
To change the setting open File > Settings and select Tools
The Pen cursor setting has 3 options.
Above
This is the default setting. The cursor points down towards the annotation point.
Below
The cursor points up towards the annotation point.
Off
The cursor is hidden from view. This does not affect the Show pen width indicator. If this setting is also off then there will be no visible indication of the tool when moving the pointer over the page.
Remember, the other annotation tools, Highlighter, Eraser and Magic Ink, are also controlled by this setting. The cursors for these tools behave exactly the same as the cursor for the Pen.
