How to turn mouse pointer into a spotlight
Why use mouse pointer spotlight?
When doing presentations or demos it's important to guide your audience's attention to the area of interest. In concerts or theaters people use spotlight to do this, so it would be helpful if we could have a spotlight on computer.
The spotlight will help your audience follow what you are doing easier and no need to find the tiny mouse pointer on the big projector screen. This can make your demonstration more understandable.
