Gromit-MPX is an on-screen annotation tool that works with any Unix
desktop environment under X11 as well as Wayland.
Its main use is for making presentations of some application.
Normally, you would have to move the mouse pointer around the point of
interest until hopefully everybody noticed it. With Gromit-MPX, you
can draw everywhere onto the screen, highlighting some button or area.
Key features include:
- [Desktop-independent] Gromit-MPX works with GNOME, KDE, XFCE, ...
under X11 as well as with a Wayland session.
- [Hotkey-based] The fundamental philosophy is that Gromit-MPX does not
get into your way of doing things by sticking some UI widget on your
desktop, potentially obscuring more important contents. It does
provide a UI, but only in form of a tray icon.
- [Configurable] While Gromit-MPX comes with a default config, you are
free to change key bindings as well as drawing tool configuration.
- [Multi-Pointer] Under X11, it enables graphical annotations with
several pointers at once or a dedicated annotation device setup where
you can use a second pair of input devices to annotate while
simultaneously continuing to work normally with the first pair.
- [Fast] Where available, Gromit-MPX makes use of Compositing. This
should be the case on any contemporary desktop environment
making use of the XCOMPOSITE extension under X11 and with
every Wayland-based session.
