[Solved+Issue] Draw over presentation

[Hagar Delest]

Hi there.

I was wondering if there's a way to draw temporary lines over a slide during a presentation. It's the sort of thing people do with overhead projectors all the time. You know? Is there a way to accomplish this?

Try: Slide Show > Slide Show Settings > Mouse pointer visible = YES, Mouse pointer as pen = YES

Sorry, but there's no way to change the style of the markings, nor any way to save the markings--when you exit the show, they're gone.

Hey, thanks. That's very helpful.

'Too bad I can't change the style of the markings so that the lines are wider or of a different color, but I wasn't concerned about saving them anyway.

Cheers.

Perhaps there is already a request about that last question: [Tutorial] Reporting bugs.

I tag the thread as Solved.

Yes, I'm sure I've seen enhancement requests on file for all of those features. If you want to add your support by voting for them, you can look them up--I'm just feeling lazy today

-> Issue 10922 - Color and width of the pen in slideshow mode should be changeable
-> Issue 62973 - Saving the marks made with pen during a slide show

Bonus:
-> Issue 62972 - Eraser tool to complement the pen tool in slide show

Nice! Thanks Hagar.
