Ability to set the default line thickness on pens This is something that is requested in every edition - it was added as a SMART setting for the boards with different pens but the MX series or the 24 version of SMART notebook still does not have any user customizable settings for default pen line width. We still have to click pen, line size dropdown, smallest option, EVERY TIME we change colors. It's infuriating!

Bring back one-dimensional stretching of images Until the latest update, it was possible to stretch images in SMART Notebook horizontally or vertically only, but this ability disappeared in the new version. I've used horizontal image stretching for years, to illustrate how the unique tissue which lines the urinary bladder distorts without tearing as the bladder distends and empties in my A&P I lectures. I'm sure that one-dimensional stretching has applications for other courses' visual demonstrations too. Any chance that such a one-way-only resizing option can be restored? Losing it kind of spoiled one of my best tricks with my Anatomy I displays.

Bring Back SMART Exchange When I went to go to exchange.smarttech.com to download a notebook file on the website it takes me straight to Lumio by SMART for some reason. When I went to download a smart notebook file on my computer that option is not there, there is only a upload to lumio icon. Please bring back the feature that allows you to download files as SMART Notebook Files on your computer, and SMART Exchange.

Fix the problems Dear Support Team,
I am writing to express my deep dissatisfaction with the latest version of Smart Notebook, which has been causing significant disruptions in my workflow. After using the software for six years, I have never encountered such persistent issues, and I am now reconsidering whether to continue my subscription.
Here is a list of the major problems I’ve encountered:
- The software crashes at least twice per hour, making it highly unreliable.
- It offers to restore lost data after a crash, but this function does not work as promised.
- The handling of tables is terrible, with constant glitches that…

I understand your frustration. If you would be willing to send us some of the .notebook files where you experience these issues, it would help us identify and resolve the issues as quickly as possible.
If so, please reach out to https://www.smarttech.com/connect-with-smart/contact-support to send the files to the Notebook product team.
Thank you.

Right click to get previous files Get a recent files list when right-clicking on the SMART Notebook icon in the taskbar while using SMART Notebook 24.
Used to be there now disappeared. Really useful when planning the day ahead and then closing the files before going home.3 votesWe had to do some extra investigation on this one, because it wasn't a feature we built into Notebook. It turns out this was a feature of Windows, and they have since removed that feature. We do not have the ability to add it back in.

Extend page function misaligns Please fix the pen alignment problems when extending a page.
Overall, this software is at its most glitchy and buggy that it's ever been.
When trying to complete a handwriting lesson, using a Smart dedicated lined handwriting paper background, when I extend the page, it messes up the alignment of the pen, so what was once written nicely on the line, is now floating in the air!
This is just one of many glitchy problems. Are your software engineers looking at all these bugs?
3 votesThank you for your feedback. And extra thanks for the video! That was incredibly helpful. We will fix this error in SMART Notebook 24.1, currently scheduled to release in December of this year.

When I add a small grid for graphing, the new update completely washes out the grid. Can you please darken it? Complaint.
When I add a medium grid for graphing, the new update completely washes out the grid. In the past, we could use the Transparency feature of Properties to darken or lighten the grid. Now, not really an option. Way to light. Not useable.

Font Change "Please update the way you can change fonts in an entire lesson. Would like a way to automatically change the fonts of an entire slide similar to how it is done in PowerPoint, instead of having to change fonts one by one." Submitted on behalf of a customer, case 00761693

Transparent Background Mode - Pedagogical Practices Please add Transparent Background Mode back into SB24. We have developed our teaching pedagogy and learned to stack windows in a certain order with SMART Notebook software on top to utilize this feature. This feature was helpful and built into our teaching practices.

Smart Notebook Search For many years I have, at various times, found myself trying to find something in a Notebook file, but am unsure which file it is in. I have to open all the contenders and then try to find it manually. This can take a LOT of time.
As the Notebook file appears to be a proprietary format ( i.e. windows search doesn't know what to do with it) , could you create a SMART*Find tool which I can enter some text and it will search a given folder (and subfolders) for all Notebook files containing the specified text ?1 vote -

Copying and pasting formatting issues When you copy and paste an image, you use to be able to grab the item by selecting it from the bottom right corner and resize it anyway you like. With this version, you can only make it bigger or smaller. In 22, you could stretch or shorten the image in any direction. You can do this now with shapes that you create , but you cannot do it with images that you paste from somewhere else. This feature was crucial when trying to fit certain images in specific spaces. Please bring this back, thank you.

Ability to Lock Infinite Cloner In previous versions, when you used infinite cloner on an object, the object would automatically be locked. This was incredibly useful when creating patterns with students. They could pull the object being cloned and then I could clear the page without losing the object doing the cloning. While infinite cloner is available in N24 as soon as you clear the board, you lose the object you had doing the infinite cloning.

Ability to restart numbering bullets from a certain number If you have made a list but would like to continue it into a second column/ text box on the same visible part of the slide, it is not possible to continue the numbering bullets from the next number in the previous column by the bullet formatting. You have to start from 1 again.
It would be brilliant to be able to edit the number that the number bullet starts from0 votes
