Whiteboard: sub-list counter does not reset after exiting shape editing

I am working in a whiteboard in zoom, workplace version 6.0.11.

I have made a list inside of a shape, with indentations for sub lists. However, when I exit the shape workspace by clicking outside of the shape, the list numbering changes to continuous numbering. See the examples below:

Example list when working in shape (correct):

 

  1. Text_1
    1. subtext_1a
    2. subtext_1b
      1. subsubtext_1bi
      2. subsubtext_1bii
  2. Text_2
    1. subtext_2a
      1. subsubtext_2ai
      2. subsubtext_2aii
    2. subtext_2b

Example list after doubleclicking outside of shape (incorrect):

 

  1. Text_1
    1. subtext_1a
    2. subtext_1b
      1. subsubtext_1bi
      2. subsubtext_1bii
  2. Text_2

                 c. subtext_2a

                            iii. subsubtext_2ai

                            iv. subsubtext_2aii

                 d. subtext_2b


Any way to fix this? I think it might just be a bug.

Cheers,
Miha

I have used zoom for years and typically use classic whiteboard when I am tutoring. I can usually see my student in a small window as well as seeing the main whiteboard window.  Recently the layout of my screen changed (I assumed a software update) and I can no longer see my student in the window. I have searched the controls but can’t find any way to get the window. Any suggestions please?

Resolved! How to create and save your own whiteboard template?

I've created boards and duplicated them when I need to use again- but is there a way to create your own whiteboard template to save and use again and again? I'm on the most recent Zoom update. Thanks!

Description of all Whiteboard templates

Hello, is there a written description of all whiteboard templates in a single document?

 

In the thumbnail of each template there is a section "About the Template". Is that information available for all templates in a single document?

Can you extract data / comments made on a whiteboard into a table or format for review?

For example, collate peoples comments / feedback into either word or excel file?

Hello. I am having trouble emailing a whiteboard. When I type in an email address (@yahoo.com, for example) and click 'Share', I am given a prompt that reads: "___(my name)____________ has disabled collaboration with users outside your organization". What does this mean and how can I email/share my whiteboard with users? I've attached a screenshot for reference. Thank you!

Unable to see whiteboard in the Zoom Workplace Window

Since the last update to zoom_amd64.deb on May 18th, when I open a Whiteboard, I can see the selection of new or previously used Whiteboards as it should be. Also, when I enter the same session as a separate user on my iPad, I can see the whiteboard ... Show more

Since the last update to zoom_amd64.deb on May 18th, when I open a Whiteboard, I can see the selection of new or previously used Whiteboards as it should be. Also, when I enter the same session as a separate user on my iPad, I can see the whiteboard after opening.
Alas, on my PC, in the Workplace Window, the Whiteboard only appears for a few seconds, with the icons for a guided tour of the new functions. After that, the Window remains pitch black, only the blue and red Controls on top (You are collaborating on this whiteboard / Close whiteboard) visible and functional. The Whiteboard itself remains visible, no controls, no error codes, just black.

 

I am using Zoom in Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS on a Lenovo V 14-IIL

Severe Performance Issues with Recent Zoom Update for Educational Use

I use Zoom only for educational purposes, and since the recent update, everything has been a disaster. My students see my whiteboard with a significant delay, making it very difficult for them to follow my explanations because they do not see what I write in real-time on my whiteboard, which appears when I share my screen. They can see graphs with Cartesian axes and other tools that my native whiteboard has. Additionally, I can pause the sharing, and they can perform the operations, then, when I resume the shared screen, they check if they have done it correctly. However, with the native whiteboard, this is not possible. I am suffering a lot with this new update when everything used to work well before. Furthermore, I have students with not very good connections, and since the update, everything has slowed down for them. Webex is a cheaper alternative that does what I need and is exactly what Zoom did just before its absurd update. I don't understand why something that was working well is now performing so poorly. The AI integration is useless to me, and I believe it should be an optional choice, not forced with new loaded and useless versions.

Zoom Whiteboards

Is it possible to set up whiteboards so that posters are anonymous? I'm trying to find an alternative to Google Jamboard and one of the most important features of that tool was the ability for people to participate anonymously.
