  3. Being able to deleted highlighted text or rewriting when highlighted

    After writing text, you used to be able to click back onto the writing, highlight sections and rewrite it where it would automatically delete the writing and rewrite it, or highlight and delete it. Now it just highlights blue as if selected, but when you start typing it creates a new text box. Please change this feature back so it works as expected.

  4. Stop auto changing size of writing

    When opening a smartboard after it has been saved writing becomes a different size than what it was set as before it was closed. Please stop this, it is extremely frustrating.

  7. I would love the ability to use the graph creator again. I am a math teacher and create formatted nots for my students.

    I would love to have the math tools back; specifically the ability to create graphs (coordinate planes) for my lessons and notes.

  8. Pinning documents to taskbar

    Before 23, I was able to pin documents to the taskbar (as well as the program itself). There are workarounds, but the pins save me a ton of time.

  9. bug: can't rotate compass when it's over a background image

    This was initially listed as a feature request, but was marked as "completed", so I'm reposting as a bug - the feature is there in theory, but it doesn't work in practice! When I import a pdf and use the compass on top of it, the circle on top of the compass for rotating without drawing doesn't work!

    Here's the initial feature request: https://smarttech.uservoice.com/forums/444595-smart-notebook/suggestions/47304956-rotate-compass-without-drawing

    Thanks!

  12. PDF no longer works!!!

    Export to PDF in the new 23.1 version is HORRID - it no longer works!!! See how awful it is now: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1MsciYm0Iq_2mp3D1LY1af1HZrQS2ZTZY/view?usp=sharing

    I have to use the old version so that to save lectures as PDF. Here is how the old version work - works great!!! :) - https://drive.google.com/file/d/18yI1W5huOXkt2_5sx_ne8oY14g7JwHqF/view?usp=sharing

    Please fix PDF export in the new version. Attaching the two PDF files - 10-02 - new version (horrible), and 10-04 - old version (that works).

  13. Microsoft Print to PDF Lower Quality in Latest Version

    In previous version the print to PDF feature would export high quality PDFs. The latest version has fonts appearing slightly blurry and low-quality graphics making grids illegible.

    An update to ensure high quality PDFs when printing is needed.

  14. Please fix the issue with custom colours being forgotten between slides.

    Please fix the custom colour options so that colours are remembered. I can fill all custom colour boxes with a colour that I want as my background, but it is forgotten a few slides later.

    If you were to allow changing the background colour of all slides at the same time, this would be less of an issue.

    As it is, I need to go back to the slide that has the desired colour, save it to custom colours, apply it to the next slide, rinse and repeat.

  18. New protractor should appear on top layer

    If you create a new notebook by importing from a powerpoint or pdf, then create a Protractor tool, the protractor is hidden behind the imported background image. To find/use the protractor you have to unlock the background image, add the protractor (or another object to the page), then send the background image to the Back in the ordering menu, and THEN you can see your protractor!

    Proposed fix: New protractors (and other tools) should automatically appear in the top layer, and/or imported background images should automatically be in the lowest layer.

    Thanks for taking care of this!

  19. Pen only selects objects

    I am using SMART Notebook with an interactive display, and I can no longer draw on my slides with the latest update. When I select a pen from the movable tool bar in Full Screen view, it simply draws a selection box when I try to write. What happened?

  20. Go back to version 22!

    The version 23 should not have been released with so much problem in it.

    My biggests issues are:
    The link on one object is now applied to the hole page. So, every time I touch my screen it follows a random link that was not where I clicked.
    We can not extend the page.
    Geometric instrument appear behind everything so if a file is made from a word document, we just don't see them.
    The printing are of the worst quality ever.

    This should not happen... I'm now searching for an alternative to SmartNotebook that will work with my smart…
