In meeting menu from General Preferences settings .

select the "off" option for Host Cursor.

this will disable the host cursor in your room.

hope this helps.

thanks

I'd already checked that box yet we're wtill seeing it from the screen share device. Is that a local setting on the screen share device or is it global?

I've checked both my host device and the screen sharing device and both have the cursor set to "off" yet we're still seeing it. The screen share device is a Macbook Pro and Connect is running in the add-in via Safari but it also has a virtual PC running within Parallels and we're sharing a PowerPoint from withing the PC. The cursor is visible only in Connect and not on the device screen. Could the whole PC/Mac thing be flummoxing the Connect settings? Is this a bug? Any ideas?
