Capture PowerPoint and Laser Point/ Cursor

Preston Godfrey · July 2020

Hello,

Is there a way when you capture a PowerPoint to capture the cursor or Powerpoint's laser pointer? I would like to keep the functionality of Capture PowerPoint where it indexes the time of when the slide changes. I know I can just capture my screen, but I really like the index feature.

Hi Preston,

We recommend capturing both your screen and PowerPoint when recording in Panopto. Capturing PowerPoint only shows/uploads each slide, whereas screen capture shows the cursor and your PowerPoint's animations, transitions, and embedded media.

I hope this is helpful, but if you have any additional questions, or still have any issues, please feel free to let me know. I'm happy to help.

Best wishes,

Cait
