            Bug ID: 121728
           Summary: Laser Pointer Icon in Multi-Monitor Presenter Mode
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.1.3.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Impress
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: doakey3 at gmail.com

Description:
I propose we create a laser pointer icon that appears on the audience-view
monitor that responds to the mouse position on the presenter view. 

I have written a little python script that does this for me when I hold the
ctrl key, but I think people may like such a feature to be part of libreoffice.

Demo: https://doakey3.imgur.com/all
My Python Script: https://github.com/doakey3/impress_mousefollow

Actual Results:
Presenters using multiple non-duplicate monitors who want to mouse-over an area
on their slide must look up at the projector and awkwardly position the mouse
over the text (or use an actual laser pointer, which does not get recorded when
the presentation is being recorded with screencasting software)

Expected Results:
Presenters should be able to visibly mouse-over an area on a slide without
having to turn to look at the projector.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
