SMART Zoom (Windows) and Scale to Fit (Macintosh) View

You can alter your perspective further by using SMART Zoom (Windows) or Scale to Fit
(Macintosh), which allow you to view and use the entire Notebook canvas at one time without
scrolling, regardless of differences in display resolutions. Both perspectives contract the
height and width of the workspace while maintaining the original aspect ratio.
Resolution differences can be especially problematic when a presentation created on a
system in one resolution is shown on a system with a different display resolution. For
example, if a presentation is created on a system with a 1024 x 768 pixel display, and then
shown on a system with a lower resolution, such as a 640 x 480 pixel display, some of the
presentation may be lost in Normal view.
SMART Zoom or Scale to Fit shrinks the display to accommodate the entire workspace,
effectively eliminating the potential problems that can arise with display differences.
SMART Zoom is especially valuable when you are using the SMART Board without a
projector. Because SMART Zoom accommodates the entire Notebook canvas without
scrolling, everything you write on the Board will appear on the computer monitor.
To activate/deactivate SMART Zoom (Windows only):
1 Select SMART Zoom from the View, Zoom menu.
The Notebook canvas will contract to provide a comprehensive view without scrolling.
To maintain the correct aspect ratio, canvas width will appear to be diminished.
2 To return to the original canvas perspective, select 100% from the View, Zoom menu.
