Always show the pointer during a slide show
 
  • Right-click, point to Pointer Options, and then click Arrow.

Note  By default, the arrow is set at Automatic, which means it's hidden automatically after 3 seconds of inactivity. The arrow appears again when you move the mouse. To keep the arrow displayed all the time, right-click, point to Pointer Options, point to Arrow Options, and then click Visible.

ShowTip

If you select one of the pen pointers instead, it's displayed at all times for drawing or writing on the slide during the slide show.
