Ok, so i need to take a screen print for a tutorial im making, BUT i'm using windows XP and i need to take a screen print of the mouse cursor, now a normal screen print won't do this, but i was hoping anyone know of a way that this can be done?

Thanks

James

i dont thinks its possible to that but a good idea would be to go into the windows folder and find the pointer.ico picture and just copy paste it!

is it .ico? not shure. but it is an image file you can open.

Lol, what timing. I saw something like this yesterday. Ill try looking for it. Btw, have you ever thought of using something like wincam to take a video of your desktop, while doing the tutorial?Its more effective, plus your mouse cursor is there and it shows your every movement.

Captivate is a very advanced program for this kind of stuff. It costs money, but you can get a free trial if you only need it once.

Corel Draw has a screenshot program included with it, not sure if it captures the mouse pointer though, but it does have quite a lot of settings to mess around with!

ok i just read this post and now i started making a small tool to create screenshots with cursors. but the problem is, that the tool always shows the same cursor, so its always this little arrow, shall i go on coding it? is there any interest?
