Using SMART Ink during PowerPoint presentations

When you start a PowerPoint presentation while SMART Ink is running and your computer is connected to a SMART interactive product, the SMART Ink Toolbar for PowerPoint appears.

If you pick up one of the interactive flat panel’s pens and another user picks up the other pen, two SMART Ink Toolbars for PowerPoint appear, enabling you and the other user to specify the colors and other settings for your pens independently of each other.
