Frame Rate: The frame rate determines how many snapshots per second are taken of your
screen. A higher frame rate will cause your movie to be smoother during playback. How ever,
a higher frame rate requires more memory on your PC. Setting the Frame Rate to a low er
rate can help when your PC performance is slow .
Recommended Frame Rate for Available Memory:
o
100 MB Available Memory - Set the Frame Rate to 5 frames/second
o
250 MB Available Memory - Set the Frame Rate to 10 frames/second
o
500 MB or More Available Memory - Set the Frame Rate to 15 frames/second
You can determine the amount of available memory by opening Windows Task Manager,
under the Performance Tab look at the Physical Memory (K) section, and look at the Available
Memory. Divide the Available memory by 1000 to get the number of free MB.
Recommended Frame Rate for Your Processor:
o
Pentium IV or Similar Performance - Set the Frame Rate to 5 frames/second
o
Performance less than Pentium IV - In many cases a Frame Rate of 3 frames/second will be sufficient for good performance. However, in severe cases it is necessary to
set the Frame Rate to 1 frame/second.

Layers
The following section describes Layers and how to use them in your Scrapbook meeting.
What are Layers?
How to Use Layers
What are Layers?
Every Scrapbook page is made up of layers that can be shown or hidden at any time. The order of these layers are:
Page Background Layer: The page background can be set using Background Settings
to display an image, display a tem plate of a grid or horizontal lines, and/or be set to a specific background color. The page background cannot be modified by the annotation tools.
Annotation Layers: The annotation layers are transparent layers that are stacked on
top of the page background layer. These layers contain Scrapbook elements. Any Scrapbook page can have multiple annotation layers. When you add a new layer, it is
stacked on top of the existing layers. This means that annotations are displayed with the latest layer shown at the top.
The three types of annotation layers that are found in each Scrapbook page are:
Default Layer: The default annotation layer in the Scrapbook page. This layer
o
always exists for any Scrapbook page and cannot be deleted. User Layers 1 - 18: Up to 18 additional layers can be added to a Scrapbook
o
page. The default layer and the user layers are always shared to remote participants during a shared meeting.
Private Layer: The top-most layer is the private layer. The private layer is shown
o
only on the local computer and is never shared through a shared meeting. The purpose of the private layer is to give the local user a private workspace within the Scrapbook session. Note: Private layers are hidden when a shared meeting is synchronized.
All annotation layers can be locked and/or shown/hidden.
How to Use Layers
Turn on layers by choosing Layers from the View Menu. This opens the Layers dialog box that lets you select, add, delete and move layers of a Scrapbook page.
Layers Title Bar
The Layers dialog title bar indicates which Scrapbook page you are currently working in.

Add Layer
Add Layer adds a new blank layer to the currently selected Scrapbook page. The new layer is always added as the top-most layer (under the user layer). The new layer is alw ays added as visible and unlocked.
Delete Layer
Delete Layer causes the selected layer to be deleted. It is not possible to delete the private or default layers.
Move Layer Up
Move Layer Up causes the layer to be moved one level higher in the layer list. The highest a layer can be moved is directly below the private layer. The private and default layers cannot be moved.
Move Layer Down
Move Layer Down causes the layer to be moved one level lower in the layer list. The lowest a layer can be moved is directly above the default layer. The private and default layers cannot be moved.
Show/Hide
Show/Hide makes the layer visible/invisible. When the eye is shown in the box, the layer is visible on the page. When the box is empty, the layer is invisible.
Lock Layer
Lock Layer protects the layer from any new annotations. When the padlock is shown in the box, the layer is locked. When the box is empty, it is possible to add Scrapbook elements to the layer.
Layers - Layer List
Each layer has it's own settings. These settings are described in the table below.

Improving PowerPoint Image Quality
The Scrapbook import typically decreases the file size of PowerPoint slides that contain high quality im ages by converting the images into a lower quality im age format. This means that the images shown in Scrapbook are not as sharp or clear as the original PowerPoint slides.
If you want retain the high image quality of the original PowerPoint slides, do the following when im porting to Scrapbook:
Choose Edit > Options.
1.
Select the Preferences tab.
2.
Check the Use original image quality checkbox found under PowerPoint Presentation
3.
Import.
Checking Use original image quality causes the high image quality of the original PowerPoint slide to be maintained as the file is imported into Scrapbook. However, checking this option also results in higher PC memory consumption and increases the time required to save, share and join meetings.

Using the Interactive Stylus
The diagram on the left demonstrates what each of the buttons on the Interactive Stylus are used for.
The bottom button (button furthest from the tip) is the Tool Palette button that is used to show and hide the Tool Palette.
The Tool Palette button is also used in gesturing.

Gesture Based Navigation

Gesture Based Navigation (gesturing) is an advanced navigation style that allows you to navigate the various eB eam Tool palette using click-sweep motions of the Interactive Stylus. Gesturing allows you to select between tools and tool properties without needing to have the Interactive Tools palettes visible on the screen.
See the following topics for more information.
Activate Gesture Based Navigation
How Gesturing Works
Mapping a Gesture to a Tool
Mapping a Gesture to a Property
Activate Gesture Based Navigation
To activate gesture based navigation, select the Options button from eBeam Education
Taskbar Menu, and select the Gesture Based Navigation checkbox.
How Gesturing Works
How to Gesture
All gesture selections are performed using the Tool Palette button on the Interactive Stylus without touching the stylus to the projection surface. To gesture, hold the Interactive Stylus so that you can comfortably press the Tool Palette button with your finger.
Gestures can be performed anywhere on the screen area, regardless of the visibility or location of the Tool Palette.
A gesture begins when you press and hold the Tool Palette button and ends when the button is released. The invisible path of motion that is drawn between pressing and releasing the Tool Palette button determines the gesture selection.
Page 81

Select a T ool Property
Once you're in the desired tool property, you can make a selection by gesturing a straight line from any given point on the screen to the direction of the desired property and then back again to the starting point, all in one motion.
Switch T o T he Color Property Ring
To switch to the color property, begin a gesture from any given point on the screen and draw a straight line to the left, and then down - forming an approximate 90 degree corner.
Switch to the Line Thickness Property Ring
To switch to the thickness property, begin a gesture from any given point on the screen and draw a straight line to the right, and then down - forming an approximate 90 degree corner.
Switch to the Shapes Property Ring
The Shapes Tool is the only tool that has a shapes property. To switch to the shapes property, begin a gesture from any given point on the screen and
draw a straight line down, and then left OR right - forming an approximate 90 degree corner.
Mapping a Gesture to a Tool
The Tool Palette contains 8 main tools in any environment. One of eight tools can be selected at a time by gesturing a straight line from any point on
the screen to the direction of the desired tool.
Mapping a Gesture to a Tool Property
A tool property is some defining characteristic of a tool. In the case of the properties are pen color and line thickness.
Each tool might also have a property ring that can have from 4 to 8 different selections. For inform ation on how to select a single property from a property ring, see Select a Property.
It is only possible to use one property ring at a time. If you have just gestured to select a color but now want to select line thickness, you must change the property ring. See the following topics for information on how to change between the different property rings.

eBeam Inscribe Wireless Tablet

The eBeam Inscribe wireless tablet allows you to make annotations during presentations or while using Scrapbook using just the wireless pen and tablet and the Tablet Toolbar. You have a number of options for configuring the behavior of the tablet and pen, including
Scrapbook Direct, Standard Mouse Mode, Absolute Mouse Mode and Relative Mouse Mode.
See the following topics:
Installing the Wireless Tablet
Pairing the Tablet
Absolute and Relative Mouse Mode
Standard Mouse Mode
Scrapbook Direct
Using the Tablet Toolbar
Installing the Wireless Tablet
Installing the wireless tablet is a simple two-step process.
1. Install the driver (included on the installation CD or found at http://www.e-beam.com under Downloads).
2. Pair the tablet and your PC .
Pairing the Tablet
Pairing the tablet is the process of establishing communication between your PC and the tablet. You must do this before the tablet will function with your computer.
To pair the tablet
Plug the USB receiver, or key, into a USB port on your PC.
1.
Turn on the wireless tablet by pressing its power button for at least three seconds.
2.
Press the binding button on the back of the tablet and the binding button on the USB
3.
receiver sim ultaneously. Both the LCD display of the tablet and the blue LED of the USB receiver will blink. Once the binding process has finished, notice that the LCD display of the tablet will show
4.
000 to 005. If binding multiple tablets to a PC, each tablet will show a unique three digit number.
Note: You can pair up to five different tablets to your PC.
Absolute and Relative Mouse Mode
There are two ways to control the cursor when using the tablet--Absolute Mouse Mode and Relative Mouse Mode.
In Absolute Mouse Mode (the default setting), the area of the tablet is mapped directly to the screen area. The upper right tablet area equals the upper right corner of screen. When Scrapbook Direct is turned on and you are using Absolute Mouse Mode, the tablet surface maps directly to the Scrapbook page.
In Relative Mouse Mode, the pen and tablet behave the way a mouse typically works, or like a touch pad on a laptop. You can touch down, make a mark, lift up the pen, move it to the left or right, touch down again, and begin moving from the same spot on the screen. There is no direct or literal mapping of the tablet area to the screen workspace.

You can use the wireless tablet and pen in a standard manner to do the tasks you would typically perform with a mouse, such as locating files, selecting items, launching applications, and generally navigating your computer's operating system.
When using the tablet and pen in standard mouse mode, here is what you need to know about using the pen:
Left-click - Pressing the tip of the stylus against the tablet is the equivalent of a
left-click. Right-click - Pressing the button closest to the tip is the equivalent of a right-click.
Double-click - Pressing the button farthest from the tip is the equivalent of a
double-click.
Scrapbook Direct
With Scrapbook Direct turned on, the entire tablet working area is mapped directly to the current Scrapbook page. Since the pen and tablet cannot access anything outside of the current Scrapbook page when Scrapbook Direct is turned on, you can use the pen with the tablet toolbar along the top of the tablet to select different tools rather than changing tools with the eBeam Tool Palette.
To turn on Scrapbook Direct
Begin using the tablet in standard mouse mode.
1.
Launch Scrapbook.
2.
Using the pen and tablet, press the Scrapbook Direct toolbar button on the far right end

Shared Meetings

What is a Shared Meeting?

A Shared Scrapbook Meeting is a meeting that is broadcast over your local intranet or the Internet.
At one location, the meeting coordinator/host uses the interactive system (software and hardware) to host or broadcast the meeting over the network (see Hosting/Sharing a
Meeting). Rem ote participants use the interactive software or a Web browser to log into the
meeting (see Join a Meeting). The meeting is held in real time, which means that remote participants see the notes and
annotations as they are created. If the meeting coordinator allows, participants can annotate meeting pages, highlight
important points, and add notes that can be seen by all other participants as well as the coordinator.
To allow remote participants (located outside of your local network firewall) to access your shared m eeting, the meeting server must be located on the Internet. Luidia currently hosts a meeting server that may be used by any eBeam-enabled interactive system user.

Meeting Name
The meeting name is the name show n in the Join Meeting dialog box. The meeting name is saved as the default name for subsequent meetings, until you change it. The meeting name can be up to 20 characters.
My Name
The name displayed in the Participants View . See Participants.
Notes
Any notes/comment you would like to include.
Publish Meeting Name
Select Publish Meeting Name if you want the name of the meeting to be visible to netw ork users who are attempting to join a meeting using either the Join Meeting (see Joining a Meeting for more information) dialog box, or the Meetings w eb page located at w ww.e-beam.com.
If you do not publish the name, guests w ill need to know the full meeting name beforehand and manually type it into the Join Meeting dialog box.
Password/ Confirm/Use Password
If a password is required, check the Use Passw ord checkbox and type the same passw ord into both the Password and Confirm text boxes.
The password must be at least 6 characters, and can be up to 20 characters.
Send Meeting Invitation
Meeting invitations are e-mail invitations that are sent out using your standard e-mail client. If Send Meeting Invitation is checked, the Send Invitation dialog box opens once you select the Share Meeting button. See Sending an Invitation for more information.

Hosting/Sharing a Meeting

The following explains how to host/share a meeting over your local intranet or the Internet.
When sharing a meeting, be aware of the following items.
While Scrapbook v2.2 can open files created by previous versions of Scrapbook (v2.1 and
earlier), previous versions of Scrapbook cannot open v2.2 files. During shared meetings, previous versions of Scrapbook do not support (will not display) text boxes created in Scrapbook v2.2. Scrapbook v2.2 will display (but cannot edit) text boxes created by previous versions of Scrapbook.
If hosting a shared meeting using Scrapbook v2.2, we recommend that you select the Deny access to remote participants with mismatched software versions checkbox from the Share Meeting dialog box.
If you share the meeting on your local intranet, only people within your intranet can
access the meeting. If you share your meeting over the Internet (using an eBeam server), participants from any Internet location can access your meeting.
To share a meeting an interactive receiver or software activation must be detected. Also,
if there is any possibility that your network uses a proxy server, see You can host one shared meeting at any time.

An archived meeting allows you to search for, view, download, edit and/or delete your archived meeting (based on the archive privileges you select). If Archive Meeting on the Server is checked, the Archive Meeting dialog opens after you select the Share M eeting button. See
Archive a Meeting for more information.
Synchronize Participants Immediately
Causes remote participants to be synchronized from the start of the meeting. Synchronize is on by default. See Participants.
Deny access to remote participants with mismatched software versions
The version of software you are using is not fully compatible w ith previous versions. During a shared meeting, participants running previous versions may not be able to see imported image files and will not be able to see w hen annotation or image elements are moved, rotated, resized, etc. Selecting Deny access to remote participants with mismatched software versions will only allow participants using the same softw are version or later to join your meeting.
