Looking for Activmarker

[derek_mcgilvray]

Hi,

I'm running Activprimary 3.5 and have used Activmarker v4.0.6 for a few months now. I find it extremely useful for highlighting documents and keeping those annotations.

The thing is, I can't remember where I got it from. I must have downloaded it but for the life of me cannot recall where from.

Any ideas? [clap]

Not sure. I don't think Activmarker shipped with Activprimary.

However, as an Activprimary user you are entitled to install ActivInspire which comes with a newer version of Activmarker, so that is your best way forward.

Actually I've just noticed the version you mentioned (4.0.6). This is the version of Marker that ships with Inspire, so it looks like you've already done what I've just suggested.

Thanks Nigel, I just came back to update my findings in the hope it might help someone else further down the line, and your post was here waiting!

I tried ActivInspire, and while I like its freshness and a couple of other features, I really need to design flipcharts that can also be opened in ActivPrimary too, so I'm not changing yet. However, it was while playing with Inspire originally that I found ActivMarker. Now that I've traced the addon program, for now I've just copied the single Marker application file for my colleagues, rather than getting them to install the whole of Inspire just for one file.

Thanks again for replying.

Just one point you need to be aware of. The Activmarker application requires other files to be present on your system in order for it to run. It is not a stand alone application. So if you copy the file onto a clean system you will find it will not work.

Luckily by installing Activprimary on your systems you have inadvertently installed all the files needed for ActivMarker to run correctly.
