Pen Selection on the Mac

When you open InterWrite in Interactive Mode, it automatically starts up in

Annotation Mode and a blank page is displayed. The InterWrite Toolbar is

displayed, by default, along the right side of the projected desktop image.

Four different Pen tools can be configured on the Toolbar, including the

shape-drawing Pen. Each of these Annotation Tools can be configured for

color and line width either by making selections from the Width and Color

menus on the Menubar, or by clicking on the Down Arrow adjacent to the

tool to display the tool configuration menu. The current configuration

selections for each Annotation Tool are displayed on the icons.

Using your electronic InterWrite Pen, select one of the Pen tools from the

Toolbar and write or draw something in the Annotation Window. Change

the Pen color and/or line width to see how these changes affect the

appearance of your annotations on the screen. The best way to familiarize

yourself with the Pen configuration options and all the InterWrite tools is to

experiment with them.

Pen Selection during a Presentation

The Pen tool selection and configuration processes vary slightly on the

Mac and the PC, but their use during a presentation is identical. Some

users prefer to assign a different color and line width to each of the four

Pen tools. As they present their material, they can easily switch from one

Pen to the other to use the different assigned effects. Other users prefer to

keep one Pen selected and change its color and line width on the fly, as

the presentation warrants. As you become more familiar with the Inter-

Write Annotation Tools, you will find the method that best suits your

presentation style.
