Follow cursor zoom

Last updated:

Zoom animations with Follow Cursor mode pan across the screen recording while zoomed in, so that the mouse cursor is always visible.

Automatically follow the cursor

After highlighting a Zoom element on the timeline, set the zooming mode to Follow Cursor in the animation properties. While zoomed in, the visible area pans with your mouse movement, so the cursor never leaves the frame.

Follow Cursor is the default mode for the automatic zoom effects Rapidemo creates. To zoom into a fixed spot instead, use a Manual Zoom.
