Question / Help How to highlight mouse cursor and clicks?

[Shiaobin]

I plan to record tutorial video with OBS. I want to highlight mouse cursor and clicks like how Camtasia does but can't find such option in OBS or such plugin for OBS. How can I achieve this effect in OBS? Thank you.

Here is a sample showing how Camtasia highlight mouse cursor and clicks:

I would also like to be able to do this. Any suggestions?

Try any software that can do it and capture it with OBS, that should work. There is some stuff on the market and you can also use windows internal settings to help out a bit.

I am on Win7. The typical cursor flickering highlight with the CTRL stroke is NOT captured in OBS screen recording. (It is captured in Camstudio for example.) I would very much appreciate a solution, because OBS seems great with screen recording, and i want to make software instructions screencasts and highlight the cursor at will.

I have installed two different cursor highlight programs and OBS does not record either of them. I am a noob trying to record a tutorial about a website. I'm trying to record a "window capture".
