I'm a Lecture Capture Coordinator at a state university and I've gotten complaints that the latest version of Whiteboard does not display the text in a meeting recording until after the text box is deselected. I tried it myself in my updated version of Zoom 6.0.0 (37205) and confirmed the same issue in my own recording. This is an issue for instructors who spend an extended amount of time in a text box during a remote meeting lecture and don't deselect a box because they still want to update and type in it. I also find this setup to be unintuitive, I would prefer it if displayed the text being typed out. Students watching a recording will be scratching their heads wondering what is being typed when there is nothing being displayed.

Can Zoom revise this issue?
