  1. The regular polygon tool no longer draws regular polygons. The angles are all wrong. Perhaps the tool has not been updated to cope with the 16:9 screen resolution.

  2. In this latest version, I am using an EPSON projector and pen. In the last two weeks I am constantly having pens just freeze on one tool. For example, I am picking a black pen, getting a red pen. I then select the eraser, but it is still a red pen. Cannot select any other tool except red pen.
    Closing the program and restarting sometimes temporarily solves this problem, but it returns constantly. I love this product when it works. I am constantly let down. ALSO trying to attach the ZIP file that your program created as a diagnostic, this…

  3. When dragging a line out, please can pressing shift snap the line to be horizontal or vertical. It used to snap to horizontal or vertical when you were close automatically (which was sometimes a pain) but it would be handy to be able to control that like you can in Word for example.

  4. Swedish translation is partially out-of-date and partially incorrectly translated. For example "upphetsad" from "excited". As this word means that the person is (sexually) excited, not (joyful/angry) excited, it's quite inappropriate.

    Depending on if it's joyful-excited or angry-excited, it'd be: (joy) "exalterad" or (anger) "upprörd". It's brought some giggles around the office.

  5. The gray bar to scroll through page sorter doesn't work anymore. It only scrolls one page down and shows a red circle with a line through it. When trying to scroll from page 1 to 50, this is a pain to now have to just use the arrow

  6. I've seen quite a few people on here say they would like to have the ability to select their own defaults when the application launches, even without having to connect a SMARTBoard product to their computers. I would have to agree with everyone of these users on here. Please provide the ability for us to save our preferences/ defaults when launching the SmartNotebook program.

  8. When locking items to move only in a certain direction, it needs to stay like this, not revert to unlocked if held for a longer period of time. This is frustrating when you have children using the board and deliberating their thoughts and 'hold' onto the locked item, thus unlocking it.

  9. It seems that dragging and dropping an image into an activity (for example, cards) is not possible anymore on the latest update... Now we have to click to open a new window and search for the image we want to add, click to close the window and so on... It takes a lot longer that simply dragging and dropping the image the way it used to be! Could we please go back on the way it was?

  11. Whenever I lock anything written with the pens, it should not be possible to still erase. This defeats the purpose of locking it at all.

  12. Allow us to determine "page size" in default page preferences. I prefer 4x3, and find changing each page from its default as a time waste.

  13. I often print one slide in "two-up" printing i.e. 2 pages to the sheet. This can only be achieved by first cloning the page and printing the 2 pages, and then deleting again afterwards. In some software (e.g. MS Word) you can print the same page twice e.g. "1,1" would print page 1 twice, allowing efficient printing.

  14. Stability of 23.2 is poor. I have numerous crashes, losing critical edits. Also on start up the page index is blank and only appears by selecting attachments and going back to page index.

  16. The new 2023 version does not allow multiple slides to be "clear ink from page" at one time. On version 2022 you could Ctrl + click on multiple slides followed by using the top page to clear ink from all the pages simultaneously.

    Hi Lori (and others who want to chime in )


    I'm trying to get a better sense of how you're using Transparent Background in the manner you describe here. Is the same thing achievable with the transparent acetate feature in SMART Ink? If you're outside of Notebook and your computer is connected to your panel, touching the pen to the screen should automatically start the acetate process. Can you expand on how you're using it to help us implement a solution that works for you?

  19. Better because you brought back the "Extend Page" feature. I do not like what has been done to the View Screens tab. 100% is way too big and when you reduce the size it just cuts the whole thing down to a tiny box....I keep trying to use the new version but I find things that I don't like as I use it. I will always go back to 22 version as long as it is available.
    Please just stop trying to improve on the 22 version. It was already great.

  20. In all of 23, when resizing text using the dot to manually resize, when you save and reload the smart notebook, the sizes are not what they were set at. You have to choose the font size using the numerical format in the menu to set it and it not to resize randomly. This is really frustrating, and was not an issue in previous versions. This was really useful to be able to resize using the dot as you could make the text the size you needed by dragging and resizing, not having to choose font size options
