Writing or drawing with SMART Ink Notes

When you write outside of your open windows, a SMART Ink Note appears. You can write inside the note and the note grows as you write, in the direction you write.

You can move and resize the note. You can change the transparency of the note’s background. You can also capture the note as an image and save it in your SMART software.

When you log off your computer, the notes disappear.

The SMART Ink toolbar appears in the title bar of each note. Use the toolbar to select ink properties and perform most common tasks such as capturing your notes.
