Displaying and editing side lengths

You can display the side lengths of a shape. If you edit the displayed length, SMART Notebook Maths Tools recalculates and displays the lengths of the other sides.

To display side lengths

1. Select the shape.

2. Press the shape’s menu arrow and then select Show/Hide Side Lengths.

   SMART Notebook Maths Tools calculates the lengths based on the ruler’s default units.

   Note 

   To hide side lengths, press the shape’s menu arrow and then select Show/Hide Side Lengths again.

To edit side lengths

1. If you haven’t done so already, display the side lengths.

2. Double-click the side length that you want to change.

3. Type the new length.

4. Press somewhere else on the page.
