Customizing the Floating Tools Toolbar

The Floating Tools toolbar is a set of buttons that floats on top of other programs. You can customize the toolbar so that it includes the tools you use most frequently.

NOTE: If you're using an SBD600 series interactive whiteboard in dual-user mode and you customize a Floating Tools toolbar, tools that are inappropriate for dual-user mode are unavailable. Also, any changes you make to a dual-user mode Floating Tools toolbar don't affect the single-user mode Floating Tools toolbar.
