You can access the annotation tool in two main scenarios:
Scenario 1: During a PowerPoint Presentation
- Works for presentations played locally or via screen sharing.
- Tap the buttons on either side of the smart board to bring up the sidebar.
- Tap the Mark icon to start writing or marking directly on the slide.
Tip: In some PowerPoint versions, if slide navigation remains available after adding annotations, your notes will stay visible when moving between slides.
Scenario 2: On Any Other Screen
- Tap the Mark button on the side toolbar.
- The screen will freeze, allowing you to write or draw over the static image.
- Perfect for annotating websites, videos, apps, or any open content on the board.
