Using the Magic Pen to open a magnification window

You can open a magnification window using the Magic Pen.

Note 

You can magnify the screen outside of SMART Notebook software (see Using the Magnifier tool).

To open a magnification window

  1. Select the Magic Pen (see Selecting the Magic Pen).

  2. Using your finger or a pen, draw a square or rectangle on the interactive screen.

    A magnification window appears.

    Tip 

    You can draw a square but have it fade rather than open a magnification window by using the Standard pen type (see Writing or drawing fading digital ink).

  3. Do the following:

    • To reduce the magnification window’s size, press in the middle of the window, and then drag to the left.

    • To increase the magnification window’s size, press in the middle of the window, and then drag to the right.

    • To move the magnification window, press near the edge of the window, and then drag it.

  4. Press Close when you’re done.
