Resolving issues with Whiteboard

background.

Whiteboard.

Solutions
If you're using the thick nib end of the pen, ensure the fine erase setting is disabled in
l
the Whiteboard app's pen settings.
See Using Whiteboard on page 29.
Make sure no other objects (such as your hand or clothing) are touching the screen
l
close to the pen nib.
A worn pen nib may act as a finger rather than a pen. Replacement pens are available
l
from the Store for SMART Parts (see smarttech.com/Support/PartsStore).
Use the selection marquee tool to select objects.
Tap the Multi-finger draw icon to switch back to single finger drawing.
Make sure the image's file format is .jpg or .png. Other formats are not supported.
Whiteboards are saved in .iwb format. The file the display is trying to open might not
be saved in a Whiteboard file format.
