Can anyone tell me how to move the board up as if it is a roller board, giving more room to write maths working. I've seen it done in a demonstration but can't remember how to do it.

Thanks
Ann

Hi Ann

Double click on a blank area of the page to show the Page Edit Toolbar. Choose Properties (the icon with the red tick) > Appearance and change the height number (3500 is big enough for most purposes).

If you want every page of every flipchart that length, go to Settings and change the default flipchart size.

I am assuming you mean moving the flipchart page up and down, not the actual Activboard? You can set a page's size to be taller than normal. That way you can use the "scroller" to scroll the page up and down.

To change the page's size, double click on the page (not on an object through that is on the page) and click on Properties, then position. Type in a larger number.

I will attach a screenshot.

Thank you for the speedy replies. I'll try that in class this afternoon.

That worked so well. No more bending down or trying to squeeze things in and the students can see everything.

Thanks[clap]

As well as scrolling the page up and down you can also use a sideways scrolling page by setting the width to be wider than 1024. Sideways scrolling can be neat as you can drag the page left and right.
