Public bug reported:

Press the Print Screen button, select the Record Screen option and then
press capture [1]. The screen recording works as expected however does
not display the mouse cursor making it hard to use the screen capture
for a tutorial without using a third-party capture device.

The screen cast should capture the mouse pointer by default. Or [1] you
include an option to show/hide the mouse pointer in the recording.
