Whiteboard Mode
Whiteboard Mode allows you to capture notes, drawings, calculations—
whatever you write on your Interwrite Board with an Interwrite Marker
Pen—for distribution. Whiteboard Mode requires only a computer, your
Interwrite Board, and one or more Interwrite Marker Pens. When you
select Whiteboard
Mode, a blank white
screen, representing
the Interwrite Board,
appears on your
computer monitor.
As you write on the
Interwrite Board with
one of the uncapped
Interwrite Marker
Pens, whatever you
write appears on the
computer screen in
the color of the
Marker Pen. Whenever you change Pens, the new pen color is dis-
played on the computer screen.
The process for capturing what you have written on the Interwrite Board
is quite simple. Using a capped Marker Pen, click on the Whiteboard
Mode icon on one of the Interwrite Board Features Menus to initiate
Whiteboard Mode. Uncap each Marker Pen as you use it on the Inter-
write Board surface, being sure to recap it snugly to keep it from drying
out when you switch to another Marker Pen. When you have finished
one screen's-worth, click the capped pen on the Save icon. Then, click
twice on the Clear icon. The electronic image of the Interwrite Board on
your computer will be blank. Erase the dry-erase ink from the Interwrite
Board surface, and you are ready to continue on a new page in the
presentation file. Unless you give the file a name, it is saved using today's
date as the name.
You can use the Page Sorter tool, described on the previous page, to
prepare the presentation files created in Whiteboard Mode for distribution.
