Cue draws animated, editable annotations over your live Windows desktop: boxes, arrows, step numbers, text. They stay on screen while you keep working in Excel, PowerPoint or the browser.
On a shared screen, people are always one step behind. They can't see where you're pointing, and by the time they find it you've moved on.
Cue puts clear, animated cues on top of any app, keeps them there while you work, and lets you move or fix them at any time.
Built for Excel training, live demos, teaching and recorded tutorials. Works with a mouse, a pen or a Wacom tablet with pressure.
Rectangles, ellipses, arrows and lines that draw themselves in, pulse to keep attention and fade out when you're done.
Step numbers, click ripples, text boxes, highlight bands for rows and columns, check and cross stamps, and a countdown timer for exercises.
Dim everything except the area that matters, or hide sensitive data with a solid box before anyone sees it.
Magnify a small part of the screen next to it, still or live. Zoom in, light up the cursor with a halo or a spotlight.
Every annotation is an object: select it, move it, resize it, change its color or text. Undo and redo everything.
Show the shortcuts you press on screen (never what you type). Save four presets of tool, color and animation, one shortcut each.
Your annotations stay on screen until you clear them. Switching modes takes one key.
Cue takes the mouse or pen and creates annotations. The app underneath gets no stray clicks.
Select, move, resize and restyle what's already on screen.
Annotations stay visible and keep animating while your clicks go straight to Excel, PowerPoint or the browser.
Presenting Excel on the shared monitor while you sit at your laptop? Cue Mirror shows a live copy of it in a window you can put anywhere.
Cue lives in the system tray. Every shortcut can be changed in Settings.
Free for Windows 10 and 11. No account. Your annotations, settings and boards stay on your PC.
Coming soon for WindowsCue is in its final round of testing. The download will be here as soon as it's ready.
