Pen Selection in Windows

The Windows InterWrite Toolbar is displayed, by default, along the

right side of the projected desktop image. You can drag it to the left

side of the desktop, or position it at the top or bottom.

You will note that a Down Arrow appears adjacent to many of the

InterWrite tools. Click on the Down Arrow adjacent to the tool, or

select the tool from the Toolbar and right-click in the Annotation

Window to display the tool’s Tools Settings dialog. All of the

attributes that can be assigned to that particular tool will appear in

the dialog. The Pen tool Tool Settings dialog is displayed here.

Select one of the Pen tools from the Toolbar. InterWrite will go into

Annotation Mode and the current screen will be captured as an

image page. If it is not already open, display the Tool Settings dialog

as described above. The current selections for the tool are indicated.

The Pen tool can be configured for color, line width and pen shape.

Pen shape allows you to draw or write freehand (default selection);

draw lines—straight or with angles, with or without arrows; draw

rectangles—filled or outline, with rounded or square corners; or draw

circles (ellipses)—filled or outline. The Pen with the T over it allows

you to write freehand text, which is converted automatically to typed

text. The Tool Settings dialog is persistent, a convenient feature when

you need to change the Pen tool attributes frequently. Right-click to

display the Drawing Tools palette, another persistent dialog from

which you can readily choose different Annotation Tools as you need

them. The best way to familiarize yourself with all the Annotation

Tools and their Tool Settings is to experiment with them. Have fun!
