About SMART Ink
When you connect your computer to your SMART interactive product, you can use SMART Ink to write and draw in digital ink over open applications, files, folders, websites and any other open window on your computer.
You can write over each tab in an Internet browser. You can write over a video without pausing the video and without interfering with your ability to interact with the video. You can highlight content on your screen. When you move, resize or minimize a window, the ink stays with the window.
You can convert your digital ink notes to text. You can move, copy and paste and erase your digital ink notes. You can also capture your notes as an image and save it in a SMART software file.
When you open an application that has its own ink tools, you can turn off SMART Ink, and then use the application ink tools to write in the content.
