THE MAGIC BOX

One challenge with transitioning to a new program like myViewBoard Whiteboard is what to do with all the content you've already created. Maybe you have folders of old SMART Notebook files or PowerPoint files. Maybe you have images, PDFs or audio files. Instead of starting all over again from the beginning, you can bring all that old content directly into myViewBoard using the Magic Box.

In addition to all of this the Magic Box allows you to:

Import files
Add various tools to your Canvas like Dice, Rulers, and Timers
Add sticky notes
Add animated images called widgets
Add images and YouTube videos

Magic Box Overview

The Magic Box tool allows you to import resources (such as images, video, audio, Google Docs, Office Docs, Flipchart and Notebook files) from your cloud drive and into the canvas. Watch the video for a quick overview of Magic Box tools including File Import, Sticky Notes, Document Camera and more.
