Forum Post: Re: Using promethean board with other programs

Hi

Thanks for posting on the forum.

The ActivPen interacts with the ActivBoard as a mouse would do, if you can interact in other applications with your mouse, your pen will allow this.

If you wanted to annotate over other programs, you can use the 'Desktop Annotate' mode in ActivInspire if you have the professional version. For example, you can run desktop annotate, use the mouse button inside ActivInspire and open up a web page and select your pen tool to annotate over the web page.

I hope this information helps.
