Annotate Your Presentations With Google Slides' New Tool

Google has released a new Slides feature that might assist you in making your presentations more interactive and keeping your audience’s attention. The new pen tool allows you to write on a slide in real time, allowing you to surround critical figures, draw arrows, underline crucial information, and generally scribble anything you want on the presentation while in the middle of a meeting or report. While Slides has long had the option to transform your mouse arrow into a laser pointer, writing notes in the midst of a presentation required the installation of a third-party program.  

There is no need to download anything additional to use Slides’ new pen feature. To get to it, open your file in slideshow mode and then hover your cursor over the bottom left side to see the three-dot menu. From there, select “Turn on the pen.” You may select the color of the pen you wish to use – black, red, blue, or green — from the panel that appears, and you can also quickly turn it off from the same area. To erase anything you’ve written, just switch from the pen to the eraser tool in the lower left corner.

Google said the pen tool will be available to all Workspace customers and users with a personal account, although it might take up to 15 days to reach everyone.
