Tech Tip: Laser Pointer Mouse in PowerPoint
While giving a presentation using Microsoft PowerPoint, having a laser pointer to highlight text or visualize ideas is always helpful. If you do not have an actual laser pointer with you, the mouse can be changed into one allowing you to control it from the computer itself.
During the presentation, right click anywhere on the screen, then select Pointer Options. From here, select Laser Pointer. The mouse will now become a laser pointer “dot” that you can control.
