  1. "Align" feature is missing: please put it back!

    The "Align" feature has been removed from the latest version: it has become impossible to easily and efficiently align objects (the top of one with the bottom of another for example) ; impossible as well to align objects with the center of the page (because we can't know where the center of the page is anymore!) ; impossible to draw perfectly horizontal or vertical lines (what's the point of being able to draw lines then?)...

    This feature is essential and exists in other competitor softwares, so why no longer on Notebook? Moreover, it always has been an option: you could…

  4. Tons of quality of life improvements please

    Please add as options or default behavior. Your current options screen is minimal and could be vastly improved with more options. (Applies to version 18.1.2294.0)

    +Allow scrollbar to scroll infinitely like Microsoft Excel without needing to press extend page

    +Allow "extend page" to be a button on the tool bar, place it in the drop down menu in the "view" menu, and give it a keyboard shortcut.

    +Allow us to change and save default colors for each pen, and default pen thickness. These changes are lost on Notebook restart currently.

    +Allow to change and save default eraser thickness as well.

  7. Additional LAB Activities

    Please keep adding other types of LAB Activities based on those from the original LAT. I have a teacher who loves the Matching game from LAT and really wants that to become available in the new LAB. Thanks. :)

  8. BRING BACK MASKING!

    Losing the masking capabilities of Smart Notebook was an awful decision! It is one of the few reasons I still use Smart and have not switched over to Google Slides like many of my colleagues have. Luckily I can still run the old version and have that ability, but just might have to consider finally being done with my Smart Notebook.

  9. Copying and pasting formatting issues in Notebook 23

    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 the 23 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 with shapes that you create in 23, 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.

  10. Resizing handles should be on all four corners and midway between the corners (as it is in every other piece of software I've ever used).

  12. Math equation editor

    Math Equation Editor

    It is not possible to type blank space in the Math Equation Editor, for example between number and unit/domension. Furthermore the equations look horrible in the newer version of the Math Equation Editor. Letters, numbers and characters are extemly close to each other, so it looks ugly. Please change this. I'm a teacher in Germany

  13. I would love my own image in LAB

  14. Mask feature is missing in SN 23.

    I went to Mask part of an image. It wasn't an option anymore. What? Who takes away features?? This is not an update. SN 23 crashes way too often. It also has trouble saving certain drawings. I drew a triangle in a previous version and the hypotenuse was flipped right/left. When I reopened the file, the hypotenuse was going the wrong way again.

  15. Word Generator

    I am a first grade reading teacher and have really enjoyed using the word generator. This was a wonderful feature for my homemade games. My students were allowed to practice their sight words and practice a variety of phonics skills. I would really appreciate it if you could bring this back to SMART Notebook. This was a very beneficial feature for my students. Thanks for considering this.

  16. Please make the pen in Smart Notebook default to the smallest size

    The default pen size (3) is too fat to use for writing. Please make it default to size 1 or 2.

  18. Make it possible to get pictures from the Notebook Gallery to insert into LAB activites.

    When using any LAB activity where you would like to insert a picture, make it possible to be able to open the window "Gallery Essentials" (Pictures) to insert pictures that are stored in this file.

    make it easy to use the gallery to add pictures

  19. Your new update doesn't print clear copies of images when printing in full screen mode. My workbooks are now useless

    Please fix blurry image issue. You have destroyed my workbooks for my chorus classes by making them unable to print. I am VERY disappointed!
