Add a Cursor Effect While Recording
With these options, the cursor is permanently burned into the recording and cannot be changed
or removed.
To have Recorder gather cursor data that can be enhanced and edited in Camtasia Studio,
leave the Make cursor effects editable in Camtasia Studio option enabled within the Cursor
tab.
Highlight the Cursor or Mouse Clicks
The Highlight Cursor effect focuses the viewer’s attention on the movement of the mouse cursor and ensures
the cursor does not blend into the background. The Highlight Clicks effect adds animated emphasis to mouse
clicks during recording.
1. Select Effects > Options > Cursor tab > Disable the Make cursor effects editable in Camtasia Studio
option
2. In the Highlight cursor group box, choose the shape, size, color, and opacity.
3. In the Highlight mouse clicks group box, choose the shape, size, and color for the left and right mouse
clicks.
4. Click OK.
To enable effects before recording, select Effects > Cursor > Highlight Clicks, Highlight Cursor,
or Highlight Cursor & Clicks.
