Real-time cursors: how they work
What a colleague’s cursor shows, how quickly it fades and why every cursor has the same color.

Why cursors exist
A cursor shows where a colleague is working: you see the movement on the board, with their avatar and name next to it.
How a cursor behaves
- Movement is smoothed so it does not distract
- After 5 seconds of inactivity the cursor fades
- After 30 seconds without movement it disappears
Color and settings
The cursor color is the same for everyone — it is not a personal color. There is currently no setting for the hide delay or for disabling cursors.
Where it works
Cursors are shown on task boards; on drawing boards you see the cursors of canvas participants.
