Preparing to present

SMART Notebook software includes the following views:

• Full Screen view expands the page area to fill the interactive screen by hiding the title bar, toolbar, taskbar and sidebar.

• Transparent Background view enables you to see the desktop and windows behind the SMART Notebook software window and continue to interact with the open, transparent page.

• Dual Page view displays two pages side-by-side.

You can zoom in and out using the View Screens button or multitouch gestures (if your interactive product supports multitouch gestures).

To zoom in and out using the view menu

1. Press View Screens.

2. Select a magnification level between 50% and 300%.

   OR

   Select Entire Page to make the entire page fit your display.

   OR

   Select Page Width to set the page’s width to the same width as your display.

To zoom in and out using the view menu

1. Drag your fingers in opposite directions to zoom in.

   

   OR

   Drag your fingers toward each other to zoom out.

   

   A message appears, displaying the current zoom level.

If your interactive product supports the pan gesture, you can pan a page when zoomed in.

To pan a page

1. Using two fingers on the same hand, press and hold the screen.

2. Keeping your fingers on the screen, move up, down, left or right.

   

3. When you reach the area you want to view, release your fingers.

You can attach a copy of a file, a shortcut to a file, a link to a web page or a sound file to any object on a page (see Using advanced object features). You can display an animated indicator around each object that has a link.

To display links when a page opens

1. Select View > Show All Links When Page Opens.

   Each time you open a page, an animated indicator appears around each object that has a link. Depending on how you define the links, each indicator surrounds either the entire object or an icon in the object’s lower-left corner. The indicators disappear automatically after several seconds.

   Note 

   Clear the selection of View > Show All Links When Page Opens to stop displaying links when you open a page.

To display links on the current page

1. Select View > Show All Links.

   An animated indicator appears around each object that has a link. Depending on how you define the links, each indicator surrounds either the entire object or an icon in the object’s lower-left corner. The indicators disappear automatically after several seconds.

You can operate multiple interactive products from the same computer. You can split the computer display over two or more screens, or you can display some programs on one screen and other programs on another. For more information, see Connecting multiple interactive whiteboards to one computer (smarttech.com/kb/000315).

If you connect multiple interactive products to one computer, you can move windows from one screen to another.

To move a window from one screen to another

1. If you haven’t done so already, display the window.

   Note 

   You can move a window only if it’s neither maximized nor minimized.

2. Press and hold the window on the first screen with your finger.

3. Press the second screen with a finger on your other hand.

4. Lift your finger from the first screen.

   The window disappears from the first screen and appears on the second screen.
