18 Using the DT770
To save your note as part of the file in an Aware application, save the file as you normally would. In
some Windows applications, such as Microsoft Word and Excel, you can select additional toolbar
options, such as saving your note into a Notebook file or saving your note as text.
If your DT770 is connected to a computer with a Windows operating system, you can capture your
note and the application background and save them into a Notebook file for both Aware and non-
Aware applications Select the required option from the Capture toolbar to capture a specific area,
a window or the entire screen.
NOTE: If the Capture toolbar doesn’t appear automatically, you can open it by pressing the
Screen Capture Tools button on the DT770.
If your DT770 is connected to a Mac computer and you press the Screen Capture button, you
automatically capture the entire screen. There is no Capture toolbar for the Mac version of SMART
Board software.
Using the Eraser
When you press the Eraser pen tool button, you can touch the screen to remove your notes.
NOTE: If you create geometric shapes using the Floating Tools, you can’t remove these shapes
using the eraser. To remove a geometric shape, select it and press the Delete key.
1. Press the Eraser button on the DT770.
2. Drag your finger or the tethered pen over the unwanted note.
