Hi, I'd like for the audience to be able to see the arrow on the presentation
while using I'm using presenter view. I'd like to be able to use the arrow
as a pointer that the audience can see. Right now the only thing that can be
seen are the results of my inking.

This might be kindof weird to reply to my own post. But just after I sent it
I figured out how to do it. I'm using a projector that also has a virtual
monitor setting so it extends my desktop onto the projector while displaying
the slide. Because the desktop is extended I can use my mouse or touchpad to
pass the cursor over to the other presentation screen by going beyond the
right side of my laptop screen. "Pop" the arrow shows up as a pointer! The
bummer is that this won't work with my stylus on the tablet I'm using because
it obviously doesn't sense beyond the screen. There is also the added
advantage that I can have the mouse setting on marker to use ink on the
presenter side and as soon as I take the icon over to the presentation side
"poof" it's an arrow that can be used as a pointer. Perfect!

I write this so that others who may have this question will have this answer
available.
