Before you start:
If you are trying iStorm for the first time, please keep the following aspects in mind:
The current version of iStorm works only with OS X 10.2 (Jaguar) or later.
The synchronized PDF Viwer and the Web Editor module work only with iStorm 3.0 or later under OS X 10.3 (Panther).
For up-to-date information and coming attractions, visit iStorm Home page.
Unregistered copy of iStorm will drop you off the collaboration 20 minutes after you join one.
To obtain appropriate user licenses, please visit iStorm Purchase page.
For a limited time, we offer free limited site license for K12 teachers in public schools
who provide us with well thought out classroom plans to use iStorm.
Please don't hesitate to contact us. If you are a graduate student in physics, you are qualified to get a free
personal license. If you find yourself in this category, contact us using an email account from
your department.
A single user license allows up to two people to work in a collaboration using the
same license key and code pair. More people with distinct license may still join.
The one control to remember: command-return.
Puzzled? Please consult the rest of this help.
Remember that you can cycle through different options by repeatedly pressing the tool button
(Hand, Chalk, Eraser) in the iChalk module.
The same can be achieved by double-clicking the board itself.
Also don't forget to try intelligent in-line modes with Baby TeX (command-/ ) and
Baby Math (command-= ).
Double click on a dragged-in pdf document and see what happens.
There are many more hidden features you may find extremely helpful as you get more familiar with the program.
For example, some buttons in the chalkboard and PDF Viewer tool have hidden function accessible
by option- or control-clicks.
Therefore, when you feel that your creative energy is ebbing, it will be worthwhile to read through the manual before your next surge.
You may make fun of our often bad usage of English.
Some of the screenshots may slightly differ from what you see depending on the version of iStorm. You can access the most up-to-date help at iStorm Help.
Think different together. And have fun.
