Cursor Effects
In Recorder, cursor data is collected and stored in the CAMREC recording file. In Editor, the cursor can be
enhanced for better visibility using a highlight, spotlight, sound effect and more.
The cursor effects work by inserting animations: one to add the effect and one to change or remove the effect.
For example, if an animation is added at the beginning of the video, all of the cursor instances in the video are
changed to match the cursor effects assigned to the animation.
