Whiteboard resizes when I double click

I have used the zoom whiteboard on my iPad extensively for the last year or so since it was released, however something weird has started happening across the last week.

 

if I draw using my Apple Pencil then it sometimes interprets my writing/drawing as a double tap, and it the automatically resizes the whiteboard eg from 100% to 125%. 

I cannot find any way of disabling this double tap irritation.

 

it also does the same if I access the zoom whiteboard via the zoom website rather than through the zoom app.

 

if I use the old zoom whiteboard the problem does not happen BUT it is not as smooth an experience.  I really like the zoom whiteboard, but the double tapping resizing issue make whiteboard use in online lessons unusable.

 

please help!!

Hi

any idea on timescale to fix this problem? It is making the ‘new’ whiteboard un-usable. I am having to use the old zoom whiteboard.

sorry, if we deploy the fixed version, I will let you know.


Hi, I am having the exact same issue and it is becoming difficult for me to continue using the whiteboard. Are you working on a fix?

The whiteboard jumps all around when I am using the apple pencil. It is impossible to draw shapes when teaching geometry. Help!
