Displaying and editing side lengths

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

Notes 

To display side lengths

  1. Select the shape.

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

    SMART Notebook Math 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 you want to change.

  3. Type the new length.

  4. Press somewhere else on the page.

    SMART Notebook Math Tools recalculates and displays the lengths of the other sides.
