I was hoping VMIX27 would not suffer the same problem. It's a real issue when trying to demonstrate / teach software live.

A possible "workaround" solution is to enable the highlight around the cursor (Annotate ==> Spotlight), which will display (not ideal, but will work). Ice

A fix would have to come from Zoom. Zoom needs to either include the pointer as part of the screen share instead of faking it, or pass the Mouse XY coordinates it is using anyway to vMix so that vMix could fake it in the same that Zoom does.
