Editing Objects in Notebook Software The annotations you create in Notebook software are individual, selectable objects that can be edited in a variety of ways. A selected annotation object can be: • moved anywhere on the workspace by pressing and dragging the object • made part of an annotation group with the Group command or removed from an annotation group with the Ungroup command (Windows and Mac OS 8.5 through 9.x operating systems only) • protected from further editing (Windows and Mac OS X operating systems only) • reordered within an object stack (Windows and Mac OS 8.5 through 9.x operating systems only) • resized by pressing and dragging on any one of the eight resize handles • altered by having its visual attributes changed • deleted or erased • undone and/or redone with the Undo and Redo commands Selecting Objects In order to move or edit an object, you must first select that object. When an object is selected, a dotted-line selection rectangle and eight resize handles (four handles if the object is small) appear in a rectangular formation around the object. A Selected Object The various methods for selecting one or more objects are described below. To select a single object: 1 Choose Select from the Draw menu. or Press the Select toolbar button. 2 Move the cursor over the object you want to select. When the pointer cursor becomes a four-arrow pointer cursor, press once. The object will appear enclosed by a dotted-line selection rectangle with eight resize handles. To select several objects: 1 Choose Select from the Draw menu. or Press the Select toolbar button. 2 Press and drag to draw a selection rectangle around several objects. 50 SMART Board User’s Guide Resize Handle
A selection rectangle will emerge from the Selection Pointer. 3 Release the mouse button or lift your finger from the SMART Board interactive whiteboard. All objects within the selection rectangle, except those that have been previously moved to the background, will appear individually selected. Alternatively, use the Shift key and cursor to make multiple selections: 1 Select the first object by moving the cursor over the object until the cursor becomes a four-arrow pointer. Then press once. The object will appear enclosed by a selection rectangle with eight resize handles. 2 Move the cursor to the next object you want selected until the cursor becomes a fourarrow pointer. Then hold the Shift key and press once. Both the first and subsequently selected objects will appear enclosed by individual selection rectangles. To select all objects on the current page: Choose Select All from the Edit menu. All objects on the page will appear enclosed in individual selection rectangles. Moving Objects You may need to occasionally rearrange objects on a page to suit a developing train of thought. You can also move objects from the current page onto any other page in the file by dragging them onto a thumbnail page in the Side Sorter. If the number of objects on the board or current page becomes distracting, you can stack them by moving them on top of one another. For information on rearranging the objects you’ve stacked, see Rearranging Stacked Objects on page 53. To move a single object or several objects: 1 Select the object(s) to be moved as described in the previous procedure. 2 Press, hold and drag to any other position on the page or onto a thumbnail page in the Side Sorter. If you select several objects, moving any one of them will cause the entire group to move as a single unit. Grouping and Ungrouping Objects NOTE: While you can group and ungroup objects in the Windows and Mac OS 8.5 − OS 9.x operating systems, this feature is not available for the Mac OS X operating system. You may want to group several objects into a single graphical object. When you select one object in such an object group, the entire group is automatically selected. The object group can then be moved, edited and sized as a single object. When selected, the original multiple selection boxes within the group will be replaced by a single selection box. When you cut or copy a single grouped selection, the grouping is retained in the pasted result. In addition, the grouping is preserved across any number of file saves. The grouping feature is especially useful if you want to move a group of objects without disturbing their relative positions. It’s also faster than moving the objects individually. However, once you’ve created a group from a collection of objects, they can no longer be Note The Side Sorter is the vertical strip of thumbnail pages to the right of the current page.
