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

  3. Can somebody please create a NORMAL equation editor. The current editor is terrible. Ever since the old (version 13) mathtype equation editor is out of notebook software, I am not a happy teacher.

    And I did have a workaround *until version 22.

    I could install version 13 first and then 20-21-22 .. and the equation editor from version 13 would still be available. Now in version 23 it is not working anymore. So now I am going back to 22.

    Also 22 is better because:

    • The new selection of objects is wobbly
    • I cannot copy a line segment anymore by…

  4. The support suggestion to open version 23 first rather than opening the previous version 22 file directly is not good. It immediately breaks the version 22 file if it has any backgrounds such as lined paper and graph paper. Response from SMART Support.
    **
    I have reviewed the files you sent. I can see the issues with the arrangement of text boxes.

    The issue is likely the result of the change that was made to SMART Notebook 23's workspace. The workspace is not a strict 16:9 aspect ratio. The issue persisted for you when you tried to open the files…

  5. 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.

  6. Before when you would type, you could go to Format, Paragraph, Line Spacing and change the amount of space between your text. This is a very important feature that was taken out. Without it, you cannot fit the words with images exactly how you want to display them. Please bring this feature back.

  7. 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.

  8. 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…

  9. 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.

  10. 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.

  11. 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.

  13. I can no longer double click on a textbox that has already been created and edit any of the typing. It is as if it is an image once you leave the box for the first time.

  15. I can no longer reshape (longer or wider) text boxes or objects - they are only able to be made smaller or larger - very frustrating. Also, there is no option to extend page or even scroll down past the observable window. Also, the new box around a selected object is blue - inside the box as well! Every selected object is highlighted with a light blue tint inside the very visible blue outline - it happens with locked and unlocked objects. I have already started researching alternatives to this software.

  16. in 23, if you have images that have been screen captured onto the page, when you print them, the images are not readable.

    You have to open in 22 and then print the pages. This is rough.

  18. The tables are now useless. I can't type directly into the boxes anymore and trying to shrink the font is frustrating. I shouldn't have to redo work I've been using since September. Also, in the gallery, the music notes, which I have been using for many, many years can no longer be shrunk. When I try to resize them to make them workable they go blurry. I am going back to version 22 thanks to a post in here, but I think it's ridiculous that I have to do that with every file.

  20. 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
