“It’s hard to see your mouse…” said the prospect, “It’s pretty small.”
This is a very (very!) common problem, as screen resolution of computers has continued to increase, and it has a very simple solution. Do two things:
- Increase your mouse cursor size.
- Choose a mouse cursor style that is “filled-in” or high contrast.
On Mac, you’ll find mouse size adjustment in:
- System Preferences
- Accessibility
- Display
- Pointer…
- (about 200% is good – move to the second mark on the scale)
On Windows you’ll find mouse size and fill-in choices in:
- Start
- Settings
- Ease of Access
- Cursor and Pointer
(The specific steps may depend on which version of Windows you have.)
Now enjoy the improved visibility your audiences will experience…!
