How do I kill the mouse pointer? PLEASE!

[Riccochet]

Hi all. Thanks for reading my query. I'm ready to put my head through the
monitor! Arrrgh!

Every time I click on "View show" and it runs my presentation, the pesky
mouse pointer is always visible. I thought it was only visible if you moved
your mouse or clicked a button but no, it's always there! I know I'm
probably missing some rudementary menu command but I have to conceed defeat.
I've looked at help files, trawled through web-guides and can't find
anywhere that suggests a "Turn off mouse pointer visibility" option.

If anyone can "point" (groan!) me in the right direction then I would be
greatful as I've hit a dead end.


Best regards,

Riccochet.

Two options:
1. when in a slide show and your mouse appears, hit the "A" key (A for
arrow) and it will disappear.
2. When in a slide show, move mouse to activate the popup toolbar (in lower
left corner), select Arrow Options and choose Hidden. This remains active
until the show is ended.

When you're in your presentation. Move the mouse over the grayed out arrows
on the lower left. Then RIGHT click and you'll see Pointer Options (with
more options by the arrow) > Arrow Options > Check the "Hidden" option.
Hope that's what you're looking for.
