I use Zoom for various purposes for both our nonprofit and private tutoring that i do. I have tried to use the whiteboard, with little success for my needs. There are a bunch of ones that I had tried and deleted (sic. closed) and tonight, found a bunch of them.

I attempted to select a single board, hit the ellipsis and the only option presented is, "LOCK." There is no command/option to delete this and a number of other whiteboards. 

Any help or ideas?

Thank you.

Template titles are punctuated incorrectly

Within the templates, there is a "Pro's and Con's" template. Beneath the template title, the graph has "Pros and Cons", which is punctuated correctly. I don't think the intention was to create a template which belongs to either professionals or convi... Show more

Within the templates, there is a "Pro's and Con's" template.  Beneath the template title, the graph has  "Pros and Cons", which is punctuated correctly.  I don't think the intention was to create a template which belongs to either professionals or convicts, which is what that title suggests.

 

The templates themselves are great but couldn't the titles reflect proper use of the apostrophe? I can't be the only .edu account holder who sees this and just shakes their head.

 

I'm partly just getting that off my chest.  Partly ranting just because I'm so disappointed to see such bad grammar in a software which is used so widely in the academic world.

Writing on the whiteboard

When I use the writing tool on the whiteboard the letters have borders so it's very difficul to read. This thing happens on one of our zoom accounts. I tried to change the format, but I can't find the option for this, I can change to bold, italics or the size, but that's all. What;s interesting is that when I'm typing the letters mook normal, after I've done and click on the whiteboard they get this weird shape with orders and shadows. Any advice will be appreciated.

Using Whiteboards in discussion groups

We tried to have a meeting in which we shared links to multiple whiteboards we created, thinking their group could access their own personal whiteboard while discussing over zoom. We were blocked from sending them to users outside of our "organization". How do we turn this off, so we can share them with external people? The buttons inside the whiteboard were greyed out. 

 

At this point, we may as well use Mural.

whiteboard the written text shifts when the whiteboard is shared with me

Hi,

I am experiencing an issue with a whiteboard. When I share a whiteboard with attendees and they try to write something on the board the letters move. I have to stop and start sharing to fix this issue. Can someone help me, please?

whiteboard & access

Hi! I want  to use the zoom whiteboard for the first time during a large meeting. The people coming to the meeting will be all external people with both business and non-business accounts. Will they  all be equally able to access the whiteboard?

Whiteboard enabled but tab is not showing up in meeting tools-Where is it?

The whiteboard settings are all set correctly but there is no tab in meeting tools and no where to go to locate any other option.  I am relatively new to zoom so any response-please consider me a rookie. 🙂

Whiteboard tab not visible

Hello

 

I started to use Whiteboard when it first came out, then left it.  Now I am returning to Zoom and cannot see the whiteboard tab in the meeting controls.

 

I have enabled whiteboard in settings. See attached screenshots.

I clicked on it lots of time, I clicked with with right side of the mouse pad, left, there's no solution. I could do it well when I was using Microsoft computer. Now, I have a Macbook computer and I can't do it anymore. Help me please. Thanks
