Enough With The Animation! How Do I Get Static Pointer?

By default the pointers are animated to draw attention but this animation can be turned off if you have CALPIE installed. Selected the pointer and press the Stop Animation keyboard shortcut (default LCTRL+0) to stop the animation. The pointer will remain the position that it was in when the stop request was issued.

If you want to re-start the animation, use the keyboard shortcut for the 1st animation slot (default LCTRL+1).

Synergy With Other Plugins

CALPIE: With CALPIE installed the animations can be stopped and restarted. Hide Base Plugin: With Hide Base Plugin the bases of the pointers can be hidden. Fine Tune Objects Plugin: With the Fine Tune Objects Plugin you can adjust the height of the pointer.
