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 use Zoom to connect with long distant grandchildren.  We also like to play games using the game room concept of several sites such as,  https://buddyboardgames.com/ and https://playingcards.io/ .  We play these games in a separate window while in our Zoom session.  I believe the structure is similar to Kooht, which Zoom has recently added as an extension but I have not personally tried it. 

 

I use the whiteboard to do joint drawing with one my grandsons.  We can also play games like  Tic Tac Toe and hangman.  Incorporating some of the game rooms we currently use in separate windows into Zoom would make it even better.  While Zoom is focused on supporting organizations, it is also great for staying connected with grandkids and other long distant friends and  family members.

Using Zoom for Tutoring

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

A new problem has come up just in the last couple of days that I have had no problems with previously. While using Zoom to tutor, I use both my MacBook and iPad. The iPad is for writing on the Zoom whiteboard. For some reason, when I write on the whiteboard on my iPad, I can see what I am writing until I lift my Apple Pencil at which point what I wrote disappears on my iPad but is visible on my MacBook and for everyone else in the meeting (including my student). As you can imagine, it is quite difficult to write on the whiteboard with my iPad when I cannot see what I have already written. Has anyone experienced this? How can I fix this?

 

I have tried deleting and reinstalling the Zoom app on my iPad, following and unfollowing the creator of the whiteboard, and creating the whiteboard on both my MacBook and on my iPad. None of these have helped.

I'm using 5.17.5 on my iPad Pro OS 17.2 (21C62)

 

I see on the release notes (https://support.zoom.com/hc/en/article?id=zm_kb&sysparm_article=KB0073923) that "Users have the option to switch back to the classic Whiteboard via their meeting settings. Under In Meeting (Basic) settings, users can click the Use Whiteboard by default if available toggle to seamlessly revert back to the classic Whiteboard in their next meeting."

 

I'm not seeing this anywhere. Suggestions?

I have a Powerpoint that I present in meetings. I've created a whiteboard as an interactive part of the presentation. Can I insert the whiteboard into the Powerpoint and have it remain interactive and functional? As it is not, I have to stop sharing the Powerpoint, share the whiteboard, stop sharing the whiteboard and start sharing the Powerpoint--at which point it goes back to the beginning. It's really a clunky process while you're live. I see that there is an iframe code for the whiteboard but I can't see how to insert the code on a Powerpoint slide. Any suggestions?
