It would be nice if we had an option to show a little dot or something that shows you where the user clicks on a prototype. We’re a remote-first company, and it would be really helpful for me to be able to have some visual indicator when I click on something when I’m sharing my screen on a call.


This would also be very useful for remote user testing if we can see where testers are trying to click.

Hi Pat, one easy way would be to make buttons into master components with two states: “Default”, and “Pressed”, for example. Use the “while pressing” interaction to change from the default state to the pressing state, and each time they click, it will change. This should come through with screen recordings, even if they do it fast. You can even do this to sections by having the border color change slightly to a different color. If it’s subtle enough, the user’s inputs will look like a focus moving around the screen when they click. It’s effective and easy. Happy prototyping!
