  1. The option to "copy and paste" a table from Word no longer works correctly with

    Notebook 23, whether 213 or 23.1. I had to go back to version 22.1.

  3. In Dual Page display, it would be neat to be able to Pin down a page so it is always visible while other pages advanced. (for example, so that an agenda or steps in an algorithm can be displayed on one page that always stays up and other items could be displayed on the other pages.

  4. Insert MP4, and other format videos as objects and not attachments locally and not from Youtube. You can do this, just program it.

    Also, powerpoint doesn't import videos into Smart Notebook. If a video from Powerpoint can't be imported into Smart Notebook when importing Powerpoint, the powerpoint import is not functional. Fix it completely or remove it.

    Add version Notebook 19.0 to the above list as latest. The feature request is now up to version 19. Thanks again.

    Thanks

  5. I'd love to be able to randomly draw cards from a deck. Just like I can spin dice, I'd like to be able to randomly draw cards.

  6. The addition of an equation editor will be MUCH appreciated by teachers and students! I look forward to digging into it deeper.

  7. 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.

  8. 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.

  9. I am looking to have a new Smart template designed. I would like to create a flipbook style Smart template with multiple pages. It would have 3-4 possible individual pages to flip, and each time the page was clicked, it would show a new letter/digraph/trigraph in order to blend and manipulate letters and words. I have attached a very rudimentary example of what this looks like on paper to give you a better idea. This would be an amazing tool to have when practicing phonemic awareness skills in the classroom, allowing us to move from paper copies that are often…

  10. I miss the old smartboards that allowed users to customize the pen hardware default settings. It is a horrible design to not be able to set a default of the pen style and thickness. I am constantly changing the pen settings to use the calligraphic pen with the thinnest line possible. I also preferred the ease of quickly changing the pen color in the tray, but the sleeker design of the new versions don't offer this.

  11. Change the page size (papersize) and orientation of the page. Currently, Notebook pages only present a 8.5x11 page in Portrait view. With new boards and displays being 16:9 aspect ratio, this causes some viewing issues that could be easier to resolve with the ability to rotate the page to better fit the wide view. It would also make for printing on 11x17 papers for our visually impaired students much easier on them.

  12. I have been using version 11.3 for a LONG time. And the separate Math Tools packages had a brilliant formula editor.

    Unfortunately it now has some bugs: cursor input / key press arrow keys is not registered correctly on my computer. Also the layout of the NEW formula editor is a joke (to me as a math teacher). Not to mention the errors it brings along.

  13. Why is there still no crop feature for photos in Notebook? This is a basic feature, and is incredibly limiting while using Notebook.

    It's another one of the major limitations of Notebook that make me turn to other apps.

  15. There is no function to go back and forth with the same lesson in SMART NOTEBOOK or Learning Suite. If create a lesson in one, it does not show up in the other. SMART NOTEBOOK has so many new features but Learning suite is easier for students interactions.

  16. Is it possible to form a memory game for LAB. Where a student would select two cards and if they make a match the cards go away (a point for them). I love doing memory games whole group because it really engages my other students at the same time (they have to watch to see where the cards are hiding). This would be fantastic for my class and hopefully others too but I'm assuming wouldn't be hard to adapt from your already exiting flip out game.

    Example (my students love this game) but It would be sooo incredible to be…

  17. 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.

  19. The "mask" feature is inefficient. It launches in the center at a small size when it would be much better if it launched at the edges of the image. Both the mask frame and the actual image can be moved, which is frustrating.

    Why not just make it a cropping feature like everyone is used to??
