Creating a hide-and-show lesson activity
N O T E
You’ll complete the following tasks when creating hide-and-show lesson activities:
l Moving objects (see Moving objects on page56)
l Locking objects (see Locking objects on page 96)
l Resizing objects using the scaling gesture (see Using the scale gesture on page 61)
You can hide an object and then reveal it using several techniques:
l Add aScreen Shade to a page. During the presentation, gradually remove the shade to reveal
the underlying text and graphics when you’re ready to discuss them (see Using the Screen
Shade on page 118).
l Cover the object with digital ink and then erase the digital ink (see Writing, drawing and erasing
digital ink on page 26).
l Cover the object with another object and then change the orderof the objects in the stack (see
Rearranging stacked objects on page 58).
l Use the object animation feature (see Animating objects on page96).
Alternatively, you can hide an object behind a locked object and then use the scaling gesture to
enlarge and show the hidden object if you’re using a SMART interactive product that supports
multitouch gestures.
To create a hide-and-show lesson activity
