MICE Scribble

MICE Scribble is way more than just a simple desktop tool for shortcuts and window management. Think of it as your handy writing pad or canvas that helps you illustrate ideas right on your screen. If you've ever wanted to doodle or highlight something on your desktop, this software makes it super easy!

Effortless Setup

The best part? You don't have to deal with a bunch of "Next" buttons just to get started. As soon as you download MICE Scribble, you can dive right into its features without any hassle! Plus, it's portable! You can use it on different computers straight from a USB flash drive without messing up anything on those machines.

Simplified User Experience

When you launch the app, it minimizes to the tray area but gives you a heads-up that it's running. There's no complicated interface here; instead, it turns your cursor into a brush so you can draw directly on your screen. It's like having an art tool right at your fingertips!

How to Draw

You'll need to activate drawing mode from the tray icon since it doesn't start automatically. Use the left mouse button for drawing and the right one to switch colors—there's even a little tag showing what color you're using!

Limitations to Keep in Mind

However, don't expect preset shapes or quick objects like arrows; that would've been super handy for creating tutorials or pointing things out during presentations. Also, if you want to stop drawing, just hit the Escape key—but be warned: everything you've drawn disappears when you turn off drawing mode with no option to save.

Final Thoughts

In short, MICE Scribble is a cool tool for making tutorials or jazzing up plain presentations. Just keep in mind that while it's fun and easy to use, there are some feature gaps like saving your drawings automatically which could make it even better.
