Turning SMART Ink on or off

By default, you can use SMART Ink to write or draw on most windows. You might not be able to write or draw on a window in the following situations:

  • You turned off SMART Ink for the window or its application (see Turning off SMART Ink).

  • The window’s application has its own writing and drawing tools.

  • The window contains information you typically don’t write or draw over, such as application settings.

When you select a window in one of these situations, the appearance of the dynamic toolbars changes to indicate that you cannot write or draw using SMART Ink:
