Using the Text ToolTyping on the Whiteboard is not as easy as we

would like it to be!!!!!

1. Choose the A from the tool bar, click on the screen and a text box comes up on the screen.

2. Type your message then click outside the box so your writing is visible for all.

3. PLEASE DON”T USE THE RUBBER as it wipes everything off the screen.

4. To undo use the blue undo arrow.

5. It seems that only one person can write at a time so that will be a challenge!!!

6. The drop down menu allows you to change colour, font and size of text.
