Finding Gallery Content
There are two ways to find content in the Gallery.
The search field at the top of the Gallery tab allows
you to search by keyword – much like using an
Internet search engine. You can also browse Gallery
collections by selecting a folder.
You would use the Gallery's search function if you
were looking for specific content related to a
keyword, such as Africa. Browse through individual
folders if you were looking for all the objects related
to a general topic, such as Geography.
To search for objects in the Gallery using the search field, follow these steps:
1 Press once inside the search field
2 Type a keyword related to the type of object(s) you are looking for
3 Press the search button to display your results
: Launch the On-Screen Keyboard by pressing the launch icon next to the search button.
TIP
Objects in the Gallery
Objects are organized in the bottom area of the Gallery by
Related Folders, Pictures and Backgrounds, Interactive and
Multimedia, and Notebook Files and Pages.
Double-pressing a folder thumbnail in the Related Folders area
will show all the objects contained within that folder.
The thumbnails displayed in Pictures and Backgrounds are
objects, e.g., graphics, photographs or text. You can drag an
object to the work area to use as part of a lesson or to modify its
properties.
Interactive and Multimedia contains Flash, video files and
objects with sound attached. Objects from this folder are used
to add rich media content to a lesson or presentation.
Additional files and pages can be found in Notebook Files and
Pages. Notebook page thumbnails can be identified by the
folded edge in the top-right corner. Notebook files are
recognizable by the coil binding on the left of their thumbnail
image.
Dragging a page or Notebook file thumbnail to the work area will
insert a new Notebook page or series of pages directly after the
active page.
