Custom Cursors
Updated by Gareth Casey
If one of the Video clips included in your project is a Recording that has been made using Flashback Express 7, you can add a highlight to the mouse cursor in the recording to help make it easier to follow the mouse cursor and to also make it easier to demonstrate when the mouse buttons are clicked.
Adding a Cursor Highlight
You can add a Cursor Highlight by going to the Cursor tab of the Media Panel and then dragging and dropping the Highlight object onto any Recording clip on the Timeline that was recorded using Flashback Express 7. Any applicable clip will be highlighted in blue.
When the Highlight is applied to a Recording clip, a colored highlight will then appear around any mouse cursor that appears in that Recording. The highlight will also pulse whenever the mouse button is clicked.
Customizing Cursor Style
When a Recording has a Cursor Highlight added to it, the Cursor Highlight style options will be added to the the Recording's style properties that appear in the Style Panel when the Recording clip is selected either on the Timeline or on the Canvas:
Size - Adjust the size of the colored highlight by either entering its size in pixels or by moving the size slider.
Color - By default, the Cursor Highlight will be yellow but you can choose a new color by clicking on the color sample. In the color picker, you can either choose from one of Flashback Express 7's preset colours or you can click More... to create your own color.
Highlight clicks - By default, the Cursor Highlight will pulse whenever one of the mouse buttons was clicked during the recording session. You can toggle this pulse on and off as needed.
