Cursor styles

Arrow, Hand, Big Arrow, Boop Paw or Hidden. Every click squishes it, the ripple right under its tip.

Cursor styles in Clacky

What it is

Choose how the pointer looks in your video: the Mac’s Arrow, a Hand, a Big Arrow, Boop’s Paw, or Hidden. It’s drawn from your real pointer, and every click squishes it a little, with the ripple right under its tip.

Changed your mind after recording? Pick another style in Studio and the video updates.

Tips

Questions

Does it change my cursor on screen?
No. You keep the Mac’s normal pointer; the style is only in the recording.
Can I hide the cursor completely?
Yes. Pick Hidden and the video has no pointer.
