TIP
If the pointer doesn't appear directly under the tip of the tethered pen, orient the
interactive pen display to improve the accuracy (page 12).
The interactive pen display's Status indicator glows blue when the pen touches
the screen.
Status Indicator
When you press the Right-Click pen tool button, the next contact with the interactive
screen is interpreted as a right-click.
NOTE
You can reconfigure the Right-Click button to perform other functions. For details
on customizing this button, see the SMART Notebook software online Help.
When the SMART Board tools are running on a connected computer, you can use the
interactive pen display's Digital Ink pen tool buttons to create notes over any
computer application.
To create notes, press one of the Digital Ink pen tool buttons and write or draw on the
screen, just as you would write or draw on paper. As you do so, a stream of digital ink
follows the tethered pen.
NOTE
You can write notes over computer applications only if the SMART Board tools
are running on the computer. You'll know the SMART Board tools are running if
you can see the SMART Board icon in the system tray or the Dock.
When you write over an application, you can save your notes. However, the available
save options depend on whether that program is Aware (sometimes referred to as
Ink Aware). An Aware application recognizes a note as a program component, but a
non-Aware application doesn't.
To save your note as part of the file in an Aware application, save the file as you
normally would. In some Windows applications, such as Microsoft Word and Excel,
you can select additional toolbar options, such as saving your note into a .notebook
file or saving your note as text.
