Once you've removed the eraser from its Pen Tray slot, any subsequent contact with the
Board has the effect of erasing annotations. Therefore, while holding the eraser in one hand,
you can use a finger of the other hand to completely encircle the area of the Board you want
erased and then tap once inside that circle. All traces of electronic ink contained within that
circle will immediately disappear.
NOTE: This method of erasing only works with freehand annotations created with the Pen
Tray styluses or pen buttons in the Floating Tools. You can't use the Pen Tray eraser to
erase geometric objects you create with the Floating Tools or typed text.
To clear all annotations with the Clear Screen button on the Pen Tray:
1
Press the SMART Board icon and select Control Panel.
2
Press the Pen Tray tab and press on the Buttons button.
3
Under Projected Mode, select Clear Screen from the drop-down list for either button.
4
Press the OK button to activate the new selection.
5
Press the Pen Tray button you've just configured as a Clear Screen button.
All annotations will disappear from the SMART Board.
To clear all annotations with the Clear Annotations button on the
Floating Tools palette:
1
Press the SMART Board icon and select Floating Tools.
The Floating Tools will appear. If any annotations are on your SMART Board, the Clear
Annotations button will appear in the default Floating Tools.
2
Press the Clear Annotations button in the Floating Tools.
All annotations on the SMART Board will disappear, and the Clear Annotations button
will change to the Restore Annotations button.
3
If you choose, you can restore the cleared annotations by pressing the Restore
Annotations button.
