Making a good presentation inevitably requires you to get as much attention as possible form the viewers and the best way to focus their attention on the points that you want to highlight is through the use of laser pointer.
However, that does not mean you have to go and get yourself a laser pointer when you want to make a PowerPoint presentation because now MS Office PowerPoint 2010 has a new feature that can turn your mouse cursor into a laser pointer.
Here’s how to use the feature:
1. Launch your PowerPoint 2010.
2. Start your PowerPoint slideshow by pressing F5 or by clicking ‘From Beginning’ tab that you can find in the ‘Slide Show’ category
3. After you have started your slideshow, hold Ctrl and left-click the mouse button to make the laser pointer appear.
4. Drag the mouse to move the pointer across the screen.
You can also change the color of your laser pointer to green or blue by clicking ‘Set Up Slide Show’ under the ‘Slide Show’ category.
With this feature now you don’t need to get a laser pointer for your presentation anymore.
