  1. Latest version (25.0).

    First of all, thank you for bringing the alignment features back! 🙏
    But why stop there? Why can't we draw perfectly horizontal/vertical lines?

  2. In SMART Notebook 25, you cannot drag a rectangle to select multiple objects on top of an imported PDF.

    Consider this...

    1. Import a PDF of a guided notes page used by students.

    2. Annotate that PDF with SMART Notebook in front of the class.

    3. Make a mistake or want to move something... With the current SMART Notebook software, you cannot drag a rectangle to select multiple objects. You would need to return to your desk and individually select the objects while holding your shift key!

    This is not ideal. SMART Tech Support have confirmed that this is not possible in Version…

  3. To a SMART Board Representative, I have been using SMART Boards and SMART Notebook software for nearly 20 years. I began using your technology when few educators were willing to adopt it, and I have taught professional development sessions focused on using the software to improve classroom pedagogy. I have also attended seminars related to your products and shared suggestions for software improvement over the years. Because of this long history, I feel compelled to express my disappointment that many critical issues affecting daily classroom use, particularly for teachers remain unaddressed. I have met with representatives who, while well intentioned,…

  5. The latest version of Notebook (ie 25.0.1390.1) when exporting a pdf does not allow you to control as in previous versions the pages size etc. This is so frustrating. Please fix urgently.

  6. 1) Once you "extend" a page, it will not go back to it's unextended size. I find this frustrating when printing - because things may get too small.

    In an older version, when navigating away from the page and reopening it, the page would naturally go the size that fit everything and wouldn't remain extra extended.

    Please return this feature!

  7. In SMART Notebook 23.2, the algorithm for undo when inking seems to be counter-intuitive. Sometimes, it just undoes the most recently inked thing, which is what I would expect. Other times, it undoes the last 2 minutes worth of writing. Oddly, if I erase some ink and then click undo, it does NOT undo the erasure, but rather undoes the ink that was written earlier and leaves the partially erased ink there. Can your developers please debug/refine the undo algorithm in SMART Notebook?

  13. SMART Notebook is available for Windows and MacOS but only a very outdated unusable set of files is available for Linux.

    If packages compatible at least with the latest LTS release of Ubuntu (currently 24.04) were provided, then many Linux users would be able to use the software (Ubuntu is the most popular distribution of Linux overall, and long-term-support releases stay current for multiple years).

    Providing at least packages for the latest Ubuntu LTS would probably require minimal resources on SMART's side but would benefit many people using Linux as a desktop OS!

  14. I’d like to suggest an improvement to the full screen toolbar in Smart Notebook. It would be very useful if the toolbar were customizable. For example, I could add my favorite type of pen, frequently used shapes, or other tools I need for a specific lesson.

    This would save time during instruction and make the full screen mode more efficient and tailored to each teacher’s needs.

  15. The paint bucket only works with notebook created objects. The paint bucket icon in most of the other drawing programs fills the area on any enclosed area. I use lots of banners and boxes from internet images and would like to be able to fill these areas using the paint bucket

  16. Jedes einzelne Mal muss man bei einer Texteingabe die nervige Arial-Standard-Schrift anfassen und ändern, ebenso die Größe, die Farbe etc.
    bitte entweder eine personalisierte Default-Einstellung ermöglichen oder zumindest das Festlegen verschiedener Stile ermöglichen.

  17. In vorherigen Versionen ließ sich unter Ansicht in blau einen Linie anzeigen, die entweder das 16:9 Format der Seite begrenzte oder eben ein 3:2 Format. Das war EXTREM nützlich, da viele user Dateien auf privaten Geräten mit anderen Bildschirmgeometrien herstellen, als sie dann in den Schulen zum Nutzen mit den SchülerInnen zur Verfügung haben. Die Vorbereitung ins Blaue hinein ist MIST!

  18. There are some very basic features missing in this software, that almost every other software (text, graphics, etc.) provides from the start.

    • I want to be able to zoom in and out with two fingers on the touchpad.
    • I want to be able to scroll not only up and down, but also left and right with two fingers.
    • I want to be able to align previously created objects to a grid so that all objects are aligned neatly - where is the benefit of using digital boards, when everything still looks as shaky as before?
    • I want to select multiple…

  19. Es sollte wieder möglich sein, dass man in einer erzeugten Tabelle die einzelnen Spalten automatisch auf die gleiche Breite bringen kann (über den Reiter "Größe einstellen" bei Rechtsklick auf die Tabelle), so wie es in Version 22 möglich war.

  20. I'd like to be able to export and import the toolbar settings (including the pen colors etc that I like to customize) so I can easily use my configuration on multiple computers.
    In version 23 I could just copy a folder containing 3 xml files, version 25 doesn't seem to have this possibility.
