Hey all!!

I'm trying to find a way to activate/enable a mouse pointer location function.
One of my friend has this function on his MBP and when he's pushing a key or something else, the mouse pointer can be located with a big green circle. Does it make sense?

I was wondering if that feature is included in Leopard or is that something to add? I couldn't ask my friend as he went on a trip for few days.

I've tried to use the search function with keyword "mouse pointer location" but I couldn't find anything. If you have any idea or can redirect me to a previous thread, I'd be grateful :)

Thanks

I can only really find this. I would have thought there would be a built-in feature of a similar type...

That's what I thought...

I don't think that my friend's using Mousepose but on the comments section from the link I found something very similar so I reckon it's the one I'm looking for :)

Okay, that's pretty spiffy, though I already have something which helps me find my mouse cursor - Eyeballs.

It puts a pair of, well, eyes either on your desktop or menu bar that look at the mouse cursor. While on one hand it's one of those "gee, that's cute" kind of apps, it does serve as a nice way to find the cursor if you're not sure. Can't find the mouse? Look at the eyes.

They blink too. You can download a trial at www.sticksoftware.com.
