Usage

First unpack the board and place it on a flat wall. Ensure that your EZ-Note is the correct way around. To check this, ensure that the cork texture is facing you and not the wall. Once in a position it is important to remember that notes posted to the board will NOT be stuck to the board once posted. If you wish to move the board at a later date you will need to ensure that you multi-select the notes on the board too, or you will be left with notes floating in the air. It is wise to place the board on a wall that has no object behind it, rather than put the board on a central wall in your home or club, instead place it on a wall with nothing behind it. Remembering these tips will save you time in the future should you ever decide to move your board some place else.

How To Post A Note

1. Left click on the board to display the dialog menu. From here you will see a list of note types available for you to post.
2. Pick a message type to leave and simply type your message into chat. You have thirty seconds to post a note before the board resets. Taking longer than thirty seconds to post a note will cause the note to rip itself off the board and auto delete to save your prims. This feature avoids people posting empty notes all over your board and using up all your prims.
3. Once a note has been created it will randomly place itself on the board and remain full bright until the owner clicks to view it. New notes will display information containing who posted the note and what date the note was posted.

You can always see what notes are new and what are old as new notes will glow. Owners can turn the message taking ability of the board on and off by touching the red pin on the top right of the board. Intelligent scripting shuts down the listening of the board after thirty seconds, so that means zero chat lag.

How To Post A Photo or Audio Message.

1. Right click on a file in your inventory and select "Copy Asset UUID " from the menu.
2. Touch the board and select Photo.
3. Press CTRL V to paste the uuid (key) and hit your return key.
4. A photo snap of your picture will show on the board for you.
5. Left click to view the photo to view.

To post an audio note, simply repeat the steps above, but choose Audio from the dialog menu and ensure you copy a sound file UUID. Every message posted on the board will log the persons name and the date that it was posted, so you can always keep things organized and it makes cross communications easy.

EZ-Note Message Board has some really cool features. From the options menu you can customise the way your board looks and behaves. Here is a description of each of the options and what they do.

Options

Themes

EZ-Note has been designed to allow you to customise it to suite your own personal style. The board itself is modify, and so are the notes inside. This means you can apply your own colours or textures making it look truly yours. For those that want something different from the classic look of the board, we have included a set of custom themes for you to choose from. To use them, just navigate to the "Themes" button in the option menu and choose the one that you like. We may add more in future so do send us feedback on what styles you think may be cool for backdrops and colours.

Note Positions

We built a really cool feature into the EZ-Note 6 to allow users to choose where a post should be positioned on the board. It is called "pinpoint" posting. Pinpoint posting is turned on by default and this allows you to place notes on the board exactly where you want them. This is handy if you have some photo posts that seem to be overlapping somewhat. With pinpoint you can use those gaps on the board to ensure everything is neatly spaced and avoid note overlaps. With pinpoint active you will notice that after making a new post, your note is now positioned exactly where you left clicked on the board. You can of course set the board to position posts randomly by turning off the pinpoint feature using the options' menu.
