Mouse Halo works fine for me

I purchased this utilty because I wanted a halo around my mouse pointer and I didn’t want to take a chance on any of the utilities with reported reliability or lack of support problems. Download and installation were painless, as expected. Only Halo and Locator are enabled by default so pressing Opt-Cmd-/ turns on the default halo and pressing and releasing the Ctl key activates the default locator graphic. All of the supported functions appear to be very configurable. Creating, attaching, and configuring my own halo graphic was simple (I’m reasonbly proficient at basic Photoshop operations.) One tip: you can use a .jpg file as a custom Halo graphic, but if you want part of the graphic to be transparent, it wil lhave to be in a a .png file. I like that a menu bar icon allows access to the control program. I have not enabled or used Crosshair, Grille, Coordinates, or Heavy Shade so I can’t comment on them. All in all I’m pleased with this utility; it reliably does what I want it to, with a minimum of fuss and cognitive load.

myPoint Pro — An essential app

If you occasionally find yourself searching for your cursor, myPoint Pro is the solution. I've set the app's options to momentarily surround my "missing" cursor with an animated and colorful halo whenever I press the [control] key. The halo flashes three fimes and then I'm back to work, knowing precisely where my cursor is. The app has many more features, but the cursor locator (mouse locator) is an essentail accessibility tool.

Love this app

The Shade feature works well with multiple monitors. Plus, it doesn't have to be a black shade. Pick additional colors based on your needs.

The Halo and Locator are excellent. A key click will locate your mouse. You can also see where you've clicked by the appearance of a ring, great for presentations.

The Halo shows a beacon for your mouse position. This is customizable and be a fun bit of desktop decoration. You can add your own images, adjust the size and add rotation.

The Grid feature turns the screen into graph paper so you can line up objects.

Absolutely worth the small price.
