# Monitor Mode Input

In Monitor Mode, interaction in Ovation happens through the use of a keyboard and mouse.

## Mouse

### Cursor and Move Modes

What happens on the screen when you move your mouse depends on what mode you are in.

#### Cursor Mode

In cursor mode, your mouse cursor is visible on the screen and can be used to select various user interface elements such as menu buttons and speech tool buttons (e.g., next slide).

#### Move Mode

In move mode, your mouse cursor is hidden, and any mouse movement causes your "head" (the image on the computer monitor) to rotate around as if you are looking around.

## Keyboard

You can walk around the environments using the arrow or WASD keys on your keyboard.
