Hi Zoom Community,

I have a problem with zoom room whiteboard which is starting on non-touch screen.

The setup is configured with:

-Computer  HP Elite Tower 600 G9 Desktop PC (Win11 24H2) with installed zoom room 6.5.6 (6405) , 64bit version
-2 TV Sony.

-1 Interactive touch screen Iiyama.

I tried to change display configuration in Windows settings but it's look like zoom forcing to set Sony TV as main display. In the zoom admin panel i can't found any option to make Iiyama screen as a main screen or whiteboard screen.

I physically switched the HDMI cables in computer but with no result.

Is it possible to launch whiteboard on specified display ? 

Maybe somebody had similar problem ?

Regards

We have the Pro-subscription which means a limit of 3 Whiteboards. But in Breakoutrooms there's no limit for Whiteboards (says the Chatbot).

And it seems to be no problem to open one Whiteboard in each of four Breakout rooms. But after a short time, the toolbar disappears.... Is this because we have a limit of 3 whiteboards?
Or what can we do?

Hello, 

I held a workshop today, and I prepared various whiteboards beforehand. My plan was to have three breakout groups working on their dedicated whiteboards simultaneously. But I had no idea how to make the people getting access to "their" whiteboards. All ideas I tried failed. Sending them a link failed, they had to enter a password (?), and a pop-up said, no cursor is shown when more than five people enter the same whiteboard.

All the options are "open", no restrictions, so according to the settings, everybody should be able to use it. Is it possible that ZOOM doesn't support such a situation with multiple whiteboards for multiple breakout groups?

Thank you for your input,

Is it possible to have participants in two different breakout rooms editing different whiteboards?

If I have two breakout rooms, can each room work on a different whiteboard. I would need each breakout room to be able to see and edit their groups corresponding whiteboard page.

👋 Hi everyone,

We’ve been hearing a lot of feedback around using Whiteboards inside breakout rooms—for example:

• Hosts want each breakout group to have its own editable whiteboard (sometimes pre-populated with a template or image).

• Participants want to keep working on their whiteboard even after moving between main session and breakouts.

• Facilitators want to bring breakout whiteboards back into the main session for group debriefs.

We’ve created a solution that aims to address these needs. With it, hosts can:

• Pre-assign whiteboards to breakout rooms before or during the meeting.

• Ensure participants in each room can edit their assigned board without needing complicated workarounds (no copy-pasting links, no broadcasting links in chat).

• Seamlessly bring whiteboards back into the main session for review and discussion.

• Reuse those whiteboards in future sessions if desired.

We’d love your feedback:

• Does this workflow solve the challenges you’ve faced?

• Are there any gaps or edge cases that you think would still make it hard to run your sessions?

• Would you use this in your upcoming workshops, classes, or trainings?

If you're up for it, we'd be happy to connect for a 15 minute chat to share more details on our solution! https://scheduler.zoom.us/d/rkz4zgmq/whiteboard-breakout-room-integration

Your input will help us refine the experience before rollout 🙏 

Best Wishes,

hi

so i use zoom meeting to teach math, on my pc.

i used to start the meeting by sharing whiteboard.

recently, i noticed there are new whiteboards, so i try to use them. when i am not in a meeting, and i create a whiteboard, i can add an  image (a file from my pc). but when i am in the middle of a meeting, i cant add an image. this option doesnt exist on the tool bar.

is there a way i can do it?

thanks!

This issue is plaguing my firm.  We are unable to "star" some whiteboards that that we have been sent in a URL.  I believe my access is granted through the "General Access" as follows "Only users in account [Our company]" Can Edit.  If my name doesn't explicitly appear in the Share list, the Star option does not exist for that whiteboard.

Is there a global configuration item I need to get changed?

Hi,

Can anybody help my writing Bangla text in the whiteboard? Thank you in advance. 

I am using a standard windows laptop. I can type Bangla and it appears nicely in the chatbox, no problem. However, when I am typing in the TEXT BOX in Zoom whiteboard, the Bangla/Bengali text is appearing nicely while the cursor is in the text box. As soon as I am clicking outside the text box, the English text is there, but the Bangla text is becoming either boxes or disappearing completely depending on the different fonts from the zoom'z given list of fonts. By the way, I used Avro Keyboard (National Jatiya) developped by OmicronLab. 

Any help will be highly appreciated. 

I am looking to move to Zoom calls/whiteboards for my online tutoring business.  I want to subscribe to the Pro plan for the calls and add the Whiteboard option (rather than the full Business plan) so that I can have more than 3 boards. I want to be able to create multiple boards as templates that I will copy to individual students copies as and when they are needed. This would mean that each student may have more than 3 boards. As my students will be using a Basic plan does that mean that they will only be able to access a max of 3 boards.

Any advice will be gratefully received.

Best wishes

Simon
