  1. Notebook 22 used to allow you to print a full slide even if it had a shade on it. Now you have to remove the shade in order to get what you had under it to print.

  2. The latest version (25.0) don't allow me to use my Wacom pen as... a pen! It's no longer compatible, so I can't use the whiteboard as such anymore...

    The same problem was reported almost 2 years ago and is still under review (https://smarttech.uservoice.com/forums/444595-smart-notebook/suggestions/47194142-wacom-pen-not-longer-compatible).

    Please, can someone fix it...?

    Update: The Wacom pen is working again! Yay! Maybe it was a problem of compatibility between versions (Smart Notebook / Wacom)? Anyway, problem solved itself, but maybe there is some checking to do, just in case... Thanks!

  3. Issues inserting videos in Notebook 25 (no option above for v 25) using Pixabay - no video options load. Also, the picture suggestions are not accurate e.g. when searching for 'the water cycle' images of a bike appear.

  4. Please include the math tools in newer versions. I don't understand why they are no longer included. The last version with math tools was 22. These tools are why I continue to use this software. It is frustrating/time consuming to have to open everything first in the new version and then using VIEW in open in the older version (with the math tools).

  7. For SMART Notebook 25 when I save a SMART Notebook File from SMART Notebook to my Desktop the Icon (Visual) is not a Blue Paper with White Horizontal Lines, Instead it looks like the Icon for SMART Notebook and I can't stand having multiple SMART Notebook Files that have the Same Icon as the Software Itself. So Please bring Back the Original Icon for a SMART Notebook file.

  9. In Notebook 22.0, I used to be able to drag and drop math expressions from Math Type. I'm not sure why this doesn't work anymore with version 24. I would pay money for this functionality to return if possible, as the built in equation editor is just not as robust as the one in mathtype software.

  10. 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.

  13. 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…

    Hi Anna


    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.

  14. 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.

  15. 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?

  16. When I create a triangle with the triangle tool and change the shape of it, the triangle always reverts back to the default shape once I click out of it.

  17. Whenever I try to use the snipping tool to add an image from another application, SMART crashes and I lose work.

    When prompted to rescue files I click yes but nothing happens - so frustrating!

  20. 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.
