Hi.
I have a Logitech Spotlight Presenter, which has a laser pointer, highlighter and magnifying functions. It works fine on my screen during screen sharing but the effects are not seen in participants' screens. Is it a question of settings? Thanks in advance for any advice.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hey @Andre9, Currently, there is no direct support/integration with Logitech presenters. This will only work if the computer recognizes the pointer as a mouse.
As a workaround, I suggest doing a Share Screen > Desktop, then all the Logitech effects will be visible to you and your participants. If you use Zoom to share the Keynote or Powerpoint, then highlighting will not be visible to the audience.
In order to avoid showing everything on the desktop to the audience before the presentation begins, it’s best to open Keynote/Powerpoint to the first slide and then go to Zoom and share the screen (Desktop). Once the screen is shared you can’t start the Keynote presentation by pressing Play in the Keynote window, but the remote can start the presentation.
Single-monitor setup with slide show in full screen

I hope this helps!
