Capturing What You Write
The Screen Capture tools allow you to capture an area of the screen or an entire screen and place it in the
current page of your Notebook file.
To do a screen capture
1 Press the SMART Board icon in the menu bar.
2 To capture a region, select Capture Selection, and then press and drag to select the area you
want to capture.
OR
To capture the entire screen, select Capture Screen.
By default, your captured image is saved on a new page in Notebook software. You can change
this by de-selecting the Snapshot to New Page command in the Tools menu of Notebook
software. The newly captured image then appears at the top of the current page.
NOTE: As soon as you capture an image, Notebook software launches for you to see,
manipulate, print and save the image.
