Highlighter

The Highlighter draws transparent lines that can be used to highlight text.

Only the following properties can be configured:

• Colors
• Thickness

Using the brush pen.

Laser Pen

The Laser Pen draws lines like the highlighter tool. However, lines are not persistent and disappear whenever the laser pen draws another line. This is useful to temporarily bring attention to a specific piece of the presentation, similar to a laser pointer.

Lines created by the laser pen cannot be selected using the Selection Tool.

On myViewBoard for Windows, press Ctrl+L to switch immediately to the laser pen. For a full list of keyboard shortcuts, see Keyboard Shortcuts.

AI Pen

To use the AI Pen:

1. Click on the AI Pen to open a drawing area.
2. Draw on the area provided.
3. The AI Pen tries to guess the drawing, and displays images based on the guess.
4. The AI Pen uses machine learning to identify what was drawn. Once image suggestions are available:
   • Click or drag an image suggestion onto the canvas to use.
   • Right-click or 'long touch' on an image suggestion to start an image search using the Embedded browser

The AI Pen tries to guess the drawing, and displays images based on the guess.

Once added to your canvas, the following actions can be applied to the new image:

• Resize using the Selection Tool
• Recolor the image using the adorning menu
• Apply a background fill

If opening previously saved vboard files, note that the background fill feature for AI images was only supported starting from the following myViewBoard versions:

• myViewboard for Windows 2.19.2.0
• myViewboard for Android 1.6.7

You cannot apply a background fill to AI images inside vboard files created in earlier versions of myViewBoard.

Shape Pen

Instead of a solid line, the shape pen leaves a line of images for its strokes. To use as a "stamp", click on the canvas to have the pen image inserted once.

The shape pen comes with predefined shapes. Custom shapes can be uploaded using the myViewBoard.com web site.

Using the shape pen.

魔術筆

魔術筆就像一個“背景”顯示工具。 要使用魔術筆：

1. 選擇背景圖案（或將您自己的圖片上傳到myViewBoard文件夾）.
2. 在畫布上繪製時，會顯示部分背景。
