PointCue Now Has a Full User Guide

13 August 2026

PointCue, DesignAlign's Windows presenter overlay, now ships with a complete cheatsheet and user guide covering every part of the app. It's available to read online or download as a PDF from the Apps page.

PointCue makes the pointer, clicks, keystrokes, magnifier and annotations visible during lessons, demos, presentations and screen recordings. The new guide covers all of it, including:

  • A one-page cheatsheet and getting-started walkthrough
  • Global theme settings
  • Cursor and pointer tools, including halo, spotlight and magnifier modes
  • Screen tools, keystroke display and mouse strokes
  • Drawing mode, with configurable shape hotkeys
  • Whiteboard and blackboard backgrounds
  • Screenshots and screen recording
  • Break timer, webcam overlay, profiles, and the tray menu's pause-all shortcut
  • Tips and troubleshooting

The guide is regenerated whenever new PointCue features ship, so it stays current with the app. You can jump straight to it, or grab a PDF copy for offline reference:
