Tip The Rectangle (Filled Transparent) button is ideal for highlighting large areas of data on the board. Win Tip You can quickly reconfigure the drawing tools in the Floating Tools by double-pressing on the pen, highlighter or drawing tool buttons. Using the Floating Tools The Floating Tools offer a portable, customizable palette of tools that float over all applications on your interactive whiteboard and allow you to perform a wide variety of operations. With the Floating Tools open, you have access to the same configurable styluses and eraser as the Pen Tray tools – in virtual rather than physical form. Press the Pen button, for example, and your next contact with the interactive whiteboard will produce electronic ink; press the Eraser button and your next contact will remove electronic ink, just like the equivalent tools in the physical Pen Tray. Pen Rectangle (Filled Transparent) Screen Pointer Floating Tools (Windows Operating System) In addition to these virtual Pen Tray tools, the default Floating Tools palette offers features you won’t find in your Pen Tray, which you may find indispensable: tools for creating a large screen pointer (for presentations) or a right-mouse click (Windows operating system only), as well as for clearing annotations and restoring cleared annotations. In Windows operating systems, you can edit the Floating Tools to add a wide variety of options. You can also create your own customized palette in the form of a user profile you can activate each time you use the interactive whiteboard. To open and close the Floating Tools: 1 Press the SMART Board icon and select Floating Tools. 2 Press the grab handles to move the Floating Tools to another screen location. 3 Press the Close button to close them.

Two Buttons to Note: The Restore/Clear Annotations and Screen Capture Buttons A Floating Tools button that deserves special mention is the Restore/Clear Annotations button. This very useful dual-function button may in itself justify keeping the Floating Tools constantly open on your interactive whiteboard. When you write something on the board, the button is in its Clear Annotations state; as soon as you delete an annotation, the button changes to Restore Annotations. Let’s say you’ve written an important note, but your elbow grazes the board as you turn towards your audience: the annotation you just made will disappear. Just press the Restore Annotations button and your note will be restored. If you haven’t activated the Floating Tools, don’t panic. Press on the SMART Board icon, select Floating Tools, and then press the Restore Annotations button. The last cleared annotation – in this case, the one you accidentally lost – will be restored. NOTE: To access this feature for a Macintosh computer, press the SMART Board icon and select Restore Annotations. The Screen Capture button (Windows operating system only) is another valuable tool that is added to the Floating Tools whenever you write on a non-board-aware application. Use it when you want to capture your annotations plus an image of the underlying application. When you press this button, SMART Notebook software automatically launches and the current annotations plus the application background are saved as separate objects in the current Notebook file. NOTE: The screen capture feature in Macintosh computers is accessible from the drop-down SMART Board tools menu – not from the Floating Tools. When you select either Capture Screen or Capture Selection, SMART Notebook software automatically launches and the current annotations plus the application background are saved into the current Notebook file. Reconfiguring the Floating Tools You can configure the Floating Tools for your own purposes, changing the individual properties of each tool in the palette of Floating Tools. In Windows operating systems, you can customize the tool palette, adding any of a wide range of tool buttons. And, if many people use a single interactive whiteboard, you can make and save your own customized Floating Tools in a user profile (see page 23). To reconfigure the Windows Floating Tools: 1 Double-press on any of the drawing tools in the Floating Tools palette. A Configure tool settings dialog box will appear.
