Using Overlays

How Overlays Work

Overlays are files, created in any Windows application or
in

ibid

, that are placed onto an

ibid

snapshot. You can

use overlays:

•

As grids or patterns for repeated use (such as bar
charts)

•

As forms

•

For headers or footers (for example, to incorpo-
rate logos)

Using overlays saves time when you create similar
images or want to add the same image to multiple snap-
shots. Overlays can be reused, even after the whiteboard
is erased. You can remove an overlay, and only one over-
lay can be used at a time.

Overlay files can be in any of the formats supported by

ibid

(bitmap, Windows metafile, JPEG or TIFF).

Creating an Overlay

You can create an overlay in

ibid

or in any application

that can generate the following formats:

•

Bitmap (.bmp)

•

Windows metafile (.wmf)

•

JPEG (.jpg)

•

TIFF (.tif)

ibid

creates overlays only in Windows metafile

format.

ibid

, you create an overlay file from a snapshot or the

current board.
