How do I find/use the “Shared Cursor?”

I’m a new user to Vyew (love it by the way) and while I was searching around and experimenting I looked at the stamp tool. When you first click on it a little popup opens and explains the pointer tool. This popup also mentions a “shared cursor” and that it is better for some situations. This sounds intriguing and I would like to explore this tool, but I can’t find it anywhere. I searched in the help section on the Vyew website. Nothing.

So how do I find or use this tool? Thanks!

Sorry i’ll put something on the site about it to be more clear. The shared cursor is ON by default. So anyone in your room an see your mouse cursor moving around.

You can hide this by using the HIDE CURSOR tool at the bottom of the drawing tools menu.

By default all collaborator users and above (moderator, reviewer, owner) show their mouse cursor.

How can I “turn on” a user’s cursor so that I can see where within the vyew room he is pointing?  I’m using Vyew 4. In Vyew 3, I would change his user type to moderator and once I could see his cursor, change the user type back to Reviewer and the cursor would still be tracked.
