If you find it difficult to keep track of the mouse or trackpad pointer on the screen, you may quickly raise its size on macOS. To find out how, keep reading.
To make it easier to see when the cursor on your Mac screen changes to an insertion point, crosshair, hand or any other form, you may want to increase its size to a larger size.
When a youngster is learning to use a computer for the first time, increasing the size of the on-screen pointer may be a great benefit to those with vision impairments. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you get started.
System Preferences may be accessed through the Apple menu, the Dock, or the Applications folder on your Mac.
Navigate to the Preferences > Accessibility menu.
The Display option is found under “Vision” on the sidebar.
In the box of choices, choose the Pointer tab.
To increase the size of the cursor, move the slider labelled “Pointer size:” farther to the right of the scale. The new setting should be visible right away.
Also, keep in mind that the Shake mouse pointer to find checkbox option can be found in the same window and makes the cursor larger for a brief period of time when swung from side to side on the screen. Color swatches may be used to further alter the pointer’s look if desired.
