Sharing a whiteboard but participants are unable to access annotations to also write on whiteboard.  Have checked all the settings and all enabled to allow participants to use.  Option to disable annotations comes up which makes you think it is set up correct but when participants select the View options only get request to take control - giving them control does not allow them to contribute to whiteboard.  Something I am missing?

When I used the classic whiteboard during a meeting, I was able to share another screen, and then return to sharing the whiteboard. With the new whiteboard, if I switch to share something else, the whiteboard seems to disappear, and I have to recreate it. From playing around, I managed to learn to save the whiteboard on a storage device, and then upload it again when I needed to return to it. That's extremely impractical to have to do during a meeting. Any alternatives?

I notice that no matter how I ask the question, the internet keeps responding by telling me about "Theme" and "Dark mode"!! My question is specific: Can you make the Whiteboard be a Blackboard like you can in Openboard? Yes or No. And if yes where is the instruction. If it cannot be done, then Zoom needs to say so, so that those of us who want that feature can get it elsewhere. Repeat, I am not interested in Dark mode, Dark Theme, etc. I am only interested in turning the Whiteboard into a Blackboard.

I thank the Zoom community iin advance for their response.

Hello, I have been trying to access the new zoom whiteboard, but all I see is "classic" even though I believe I fulfill all the conditions required for it.

Any ideas?  Thanks in advance
