Stream Deck plugin for Windows
Draw on your screen and highlight your cursor from Stream Deck
Draw on Screen and Highlight puts a pen and marker with arrows and boxes, a cursor ring or glow, a spotlight, a laser pointer, click ripples and a magnifier on your Stream Deck keys.
For presenting, sharing your screen in Teams or Zoom, and recording tutorials on Windows.
One key each turns an effect on and off, and the key lights up while it is on. Pointer effects let your clicks through, and while you draw, arrow keys still turn your slides.

Six keys
Draw on Screen
A pen or a see-through marker right on your screen, over any app. Hold Shift for a straight line, Ctrl for an arrow, Ctrl+Shift for a box; right-click takes back the last line. Keep your lines on screen and click through them.
Cursor Highlight
A ring, a soft glow or a disc follows your mouse pointer on every screen, in 10 colors and 4 sizes, so viewers find it at once.
Spotlight
Dims everything except a soft circle at your pointer, or everything except the window in front.
Laser Pointer
A glowing dot at the tip of your pointer, with a short tail that fades as you move.
Click Ripples
A ripple where you click, left and right clicks in their own colors, so viewers see what you press.
Magnifier
A round lens follows your pointer and shows what is under it larger, live, from 1.5x to 4x.
Choose your look
Pick a look in each key's settings: Classic, Neon, Ring, Bars or Solid. Every key lights up while its effect is on.
One key per color or tool
Put several keys of one effect side by side, each with its own color, tool or size. Press another one to switch to it, even while you draw.
Made for presenting
Cursor Highlight, Spotlight, Laser Pointer, Click Ripples and Magnifier let your clicks through to your apps. Only the pen takes clicks, while you draw.
While you draw, the keyboard stays with your app, so arrow keys and a presentation remote still turn your slides.
Esc pressed twice within 0.6 seconds turns every effect off.
What you draw stays on your PC. The only thing that goes online is the license key check.

Questions
How do I draw on my screen during a presentation with Stream Deck?
Add a Draw on Screen key of Draw on Screen and Highlight and press it: you draw right on the screen with a pen or a see-through marker, with straight lines (Shift), arrows (Ctrl) and boxes (Ctrl+Shift). Press the key again to stop.
How do I highlight my mouse cursor on Stream Deck?
Add a Cursor Highlight key. It puts a ring, a soft glow or a disc around your mouse pointer, in 10 colors and 4 sizes, and your clicks still go to your apps.
Will viewers see it in Teams or Zoom?
Yes, when you share or record your whole screen.
Does it block my mouse or keyboard?
Only the pen takes clicks, while you draw. The keyboard stays with your app, so arrow keys and a presentation remote still turn your slides.
How do I turn everything off at once?
Press Esc twice within 0.6 seconds. Every effect turns off.
How many PCs can I use with one license key?
Up to 3 of your own PCs. If you replace a PC, write to us and we free up a place for the new one.
