Cursor Smoothing in CANVID

The Cursor Smoothing feature in CANVID helps make your mouse movements look clean and polished in your recordings — perfect for tutorials, demos, and walkthroughs.

What It Does

When enabled, Cursor Smoothing automatically:

• Reduces jittery movements
  
• Smooths out sharp or shaky cursor paths
  
• Adds a natural, professional flow to your mouse gestures

This is especially helpful when you're highlighting features or guiding viewers through a process.

By Default

• Cursor Smoothing is enabled automatically for all new recordings.
  
• You can toggle it on or off anytime in the Editor’s Cursor section.

Note: Due to GIF limitations, cursor movements may appear less smooth in the samples below than they actually are in CANVID’s video exports.
