Hi @Apollonius , sorry to hear you don't like the new whiteboard experience. You can set the in-meeting default back to the old experience by going to zoom.us -> settings -> meetings -> Whiteboard (classic) and unchecking "use whiteboard by default if available".

Would you mine sharing a few reasons why you don't like the new experience? I would love to better understand any pain points you have and make sure we address them in upcoming releases.

I am also not a fan.  The main reason is, with the new whiteboard, you have to pick the function EVERY TIME you need it.  For example, if I want to make 2 arrows, I have to select the arrow function, place it, then go back and pick the same function again to place the next one.  It’s annoying and time consuming.  The grid snap may be helpful for some people but not really for my uses.  This is why I’m going back to the old one.

HI @Antiausten - Thank you for your feedback! We are working on improving the experience in inserting multiple objects in quick succession. We are in the process of updating the behavior to more closely align with the classic whiteboard experience where you can quickly draw multiple shapes at once.
