SMART Notebook: Notebook 23

(thinking…)

The drafting triangle in SMART Notebook 23 is tragic!

SMART Geodreieck by ASTRO from Measurement Tools in SMART Notebook 23 is not as good as in previous versions. The axis of rotation of the tool is moved to the top of the drafting triangle instead of the center of the base (as it was in version 22). Rotating and zooming the drafting triangle is very clunky.

This was an unfortunate error that made it into the 23.0 live version, but the tool has never truly lived up to our expectations. We have rebuilt the set square/Geodreieck in Notebook 23.1, which is available for update now. It functions as one would interact with it in the real world.

    Dear all.

    I was chocked when I opened version 23 and found out they changed the triangle into a version that:
    - does not scale easy
    - does not rotate easy

    (And has the same - forgive my words - dumb style as the 'new; equation editor. I am still using the old 'math type like' formula editor)

    It just does not feel right.

    Hence:
    I am going back to 22 just for the triangle.

    Please vote for a change of triangle so I can see what else is improved in version 23.
