nschoeggl Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 What I would like to do is be able to run ActivInspire on my Surface Pro 3 and then connected the surface to a projector via the Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter. The surface/project/display adapter works great. ActivInspire will not recognized the surface pro 3 Pen. I am running windows 10 and have tried an assortment of settings in ActivInspire and nothing seems to work. Suggestions? Should the pen work in ActivInspire?
ricki Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 I would get a usb to via and hdmi convertor then you can use it with any projector setup Richard
Arthur Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 (edited) ActivInspire will not recognize the Surface Pro 3 Pen. Have you tried the wintab drivers? https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/download/details.aspx?id=38826 Edited March 8, 2016 by Arthur
Michael Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 Make sure you're running the latest or newer ActivInspire software too. The latest is now version 2.5.
Joanne Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 in active inspire go to settings, then on the left it's the third one down then treat something as (first dropdown box) needs to change from select tool only to full touch support. Secret option B - download the latest version (2.4?) that has it set as default! - - - Updated - - - Make sure you're running the latest or newer ActivInspire software too. The latest is now version 2.5. Beat me to it!!
nschoeggl Posted March 8, 2016 Author Posted March 8, 2016 ActivInspire version: 2.5.66477 WinTab driver installed All the latest Windows 10 drivers installed Tried every setting for "Dual Mode ActivBoards" and none of them work. If I pick "Use Touch instead of ActivPen", when the surface pen touches the screen, I get a dot (if I am in pen mode) but it doesn't continue to work if you try to write/draw with it. Touch via finger works correctly.
MGadAllah Posted April 13, 2016 Posted April 13, 2016 I've came across this thread from google and was the reason to join the forum to post this reply if it may help you. please check my post in the support forum at promethean website here The latest version or ActivInspire 2.6 has a problem with many other hardwares and many reported this issue. You are not alone hehehehe I hope if they solve this issue and upgrade the software soon. Try 2.5 if you have it or 2.4. Hope this help.
