# Cursor

In Screen Studio, you have a variety of options to customize how the cursor appears and behaves in your recording.

## Cursor Settings

**`Hide cursor`** \- Completely removes the cursor from your recording, ideal for presentations or tutorials where the cursor may be distracting.

**`Cursor size`** \- Adjusts the size of the cursor to make it more visible or subtle depending on your needs.

**`Cursor type`** \- Choose between macOS or Touch cursor styles to match your operating system or personal preference. The Touch cursor is mostly used for recordings on iPads and iPhones.

**`Always use default system cursor`** \- Ensures consistency by always using your system’s default cursor, avoiding changes during different actions like text selection.

**`Hide cursor if it's not moving`** \- Automatically hides the cursor when it's idle, keeping your viewers' focus on the main content.

**`Loop cursor position`** \- Near the end of the video, cursor will move back to its initial position. You can use this option to create a perfect loop.

## **Advanced Cursor Settings**

Screen Studio provides advanced settings to further refine cursor behavior. Click on `Advanced` in the same menu to toggle the list of additional options.

**`Rotate cursor while moving`** \- Adds a dynamic effect by slightly rotating the cursor, mimicking the natural movement of chasing the mouse.

**`Stop cursor movement at the end of the video`** \- Controls the cursor to stop moving before the video ends, avoiding unwanted captures like stopping the recording.

**`Remove cursor shakes`** \- Useful for eliminating unintended cursor movements, often caused by accessibility tools.

**`Optimize original cursor types`** \- Minimize rapid changes in cursor types during recording to ensure smoother transitions for a better viewer experience.
