Want to get the toolbox out of your way? Open any flipchart and simply click on the Toolbox Options icon in your Toolbox (shown on the left). You can choose to dock the palette to the left/right side of your screen, at the top like other applications, or at the bottom for easy access for younger students. You can also roll in and/or roll up the toolbox giving you more space to view your flipchart.

On your laptop, make sure ActivInspire has been updated to the latest version. To check which version of the software is installed on your machine, click Configure on the Dashboard and on the right side of the window, click Check for Updates.
