★ WHAT IS SLATEBOARD?

SlateBoard is a lightweight screen annotation tool that sits invisibly

over everything on your computer. With one click you can draw, write

and highlight directly on top of any slide, video, PDF, website or

document — without switching apps or moving windows.

Built specifically for teachers, lecturers, tutors and trainers.

★ KEY FEATURES

✏️ ANNOTATE OVER ANYTHING

Draw freehand, place text boxes and highlight areas on top of

PowerPoint, Google Slides, PDFs, websites — anything

showing on your screen. No screen-sharing software required.

🖊️ INTERACTIVE BOARD MODES (NEW)

Turn your screen into a full-size whiteboard, blackboard or

coloured board without opening Paint, Word or PowerPoint:

• Whiteboard (white background, marker colours)

• Blackboard (dark background, chalk colours)

• Chalkboard (classic green, white chalk)

• Yellow Board — soft yellow background with black text, proven to

reduce visual stress for dyslexic learners. Great to mention to

SEND coordinators and inclusion leads!

🎨 COLOUR PICKER & BRUSH SIZES

5 brush sizes (XS–XL), 8 preset colours + full custom colour picker.

Eyedropper tool lets you pick any colour directly from your screen.

⌨️ TYPE ON SCREEN

Place formatted text anywhere on screen in your chosen colour and

size. Commit with Enter, undo with Ctrl+Z.

📐 FLEXIBLE TOOLBAR

Horizontal or vertical toolbar — switch with one click or press V.

Drag the bar anywhere on screen. Stays neatly out of the way during

normal use (completely invisible when not annotating).
