Magic Line Pen
Use the Magic Line Pen page to specify a default image when the Magic Line Pen feature is activated. You also have the option to use images stored in your connected cloud storage.
Image sources
Images can be selected from the following options:
-
myViewBoard default.
Default images that come installed with myViewBoard. These are the same images that can be selected within the myViewBoard app.
-
Cloud drive.
Images saved in the integrated Cloud drive service that is currently set as the default. Note that only one service can be loaded at a time. To add more images, click Update files to open the Cloud drive in a new browser window.
To select a default image, perform the following:
- Click Set as default to set the current image as the default image.
- Click Clear default to remove the current image as the default image.
Adding Images
Before proceeding, connect a cloud drive service with your myViewBoard account. This process triggers the creation of a myViewBoard folder on the root of the cloud drive. This folder contains a set of pre-defined subdirectories where myViewBoard stores important assets.
To have custom images appear in the settings page, upload them to this subdirectory:
- myViewBoard » Magic Line Pen
There are several options to add images to this directory:
Add via apps integrated with the Windows desktop:
- Use your cloud service app (like OneDrive and Google Drive) to perform a sync.
Ensure that the latest folders are included. - Use Windows Explorer to navigate to the myViewBoard » Magic Line Pen folder.
- Drag and drop images into this folder.
- Head over to myviewboard.com.
- Go to the Settings » Magic Line Pen page
