LiveDraw

LiveDraw is a simple and straightforward tool that allows you to draw on screen in real time. The utility can come in handy in a variety of situations, but it is especially useful with online presentations.

The application is portable, so all you need to do to get started is download it to the desired location and decompress the archive. The app comes with a minimalistic, yet interesting interface that displays all options in a small menu that you can set horizontally or vertically.

You can get started by picking a color and selecting the Live Draw mode. Increasing and decreasing the brush size is done via the + and – keys, erasing with E and you can Undo or Redo strokes via Z and respectively Y. The app allows you to save or export with transparency with right click, a feature that can come in handy if you plan to share the material with your viewers.

Unlike similar tools out there, the application does not force you to take a screenshot before you can start drawing. According to the developer, the tool was created to avoid having to take extra steps that may be distracting in some cases.

The app can be locked and unlocked with a simple click of a button, so you can easily switch back to the cursor during the presentation. You can even pin it in a location that is easily accessible, yet does not affect the proper viewing of the materials. This way, you can prepare a more dynamic presentation.

LiveDraw is an intuitive application that enables you to draw anything using your mouse or a digital pen. Not only does it help you make your presentations more immersive, but it can also help explain concepts or ideas better.
