The easiest method is to use a quick pointer. Hold down the left and right mouse mouse buttons and drag on the map. Clicking the left and right mouse buttons a second time will clear the quick pointer. Like other pointers, you can also drag while hold the shift, ctrl, or alt keys to create a circle, box, or cone.
