Cursor change - pointer to rollover

I am using Cp 9 (9.0.2.437). But, to my knowledge, Cp has always limited users to 1 cursor type per slide - you can't change the cursor type 'mid-path'. In fact, when you Record a New -> Software Simulation Cp changes the cursor from pointer to hand on the slide where it passes over a hotspot (which is technically incorrect, as the cursor doesn't change in 'real life' until it is over the hotspot).

Although a video demo would solve the mouse problem, it creates another problem - you can't edit the image. Something I have to do to remove sensitive customer info.

My current solution is to end the mouse path with the pointer just before the hotspot and insert a new slide to complete the mouse path over the hotspot with the rollover cursor. Unfortunately, this results in an 'interrupted' mouse path - it slows and momentarily stops at the end of the pointer path, then resumes with the rollover path. I have de-selected Reduce Speed Before Click for the pointer path, but the overall effect is still an interrupted path from beginning to hotspot.

Does anyone have a solution that looks technically correct and results in a smooth path?
