Boardmaker 6.0 and Boardmaker Plus

The new Boardmaker 6.0 has some new features that make this program even more flexible. Some of the new features allow for aligning symbols to the right, left and center of the drawing board and make it easy to centering text and symbols wtihin buttons. Now you can also design freeform shapes for your symbols with curvy and straight edges. There is also an improved color tool called the eyedroppper. In the past, we were limited to applying only colors found on the color tool, but with the eyedropper you can duplicate any color displayed in the symbol. Now you can change the colors of faces, clothing or objects in the symbols. How cool is that?

Boardmaker Plus is even better! Create movable and destination buttons and select actions to associate with them. Drag and drop pictures from other applications and from the internet onto your Boardmaker activities and then add these images to your symbol finder. Resizing buttons and recording sounds is easier than ever too. Contact T/TAC at VCU if you would like to see Boardmaker Plus.
