Hello,

We are using the NEW Zoom Whiteboard, and it's great, but we are having trouble with the comments. If I add a comment, I can read it up UNTIL I Ieave that board, and then when I return, I can see the comment icon (and can move it around) but I cannot open it to read it. If someone else leaves a comment on my board, I cannot read that either.

Is anyone else having this issue?

2nd camera sharing just a black screen when switching back to whiteboard then to camera again.

I've tried everything. 

 

The second camera sharing works once, but if I need to go back and forth to the whiteboard, the second camera just gives me a black screen. 

 

I have uninstalled, reinstalled, restarted, you name it.  Please help!

Hi, hope someone can help because this is the most frustrating thing. 

Every time I use the whiteboard on zoom, it constantly shifts from full screen to smaller screen. I use a VEIKK graphics tablet for online lessons and whilst writing on it and explaining to my students it is constantly shifting. I have changed the settings of the tablet on my macbook's settings but this did not change what is happening. Can anyone help?

Hello. I tutor math, so I frequently need to put an image of the problem up and then use the writing tools to show steps etc. However, the eraser tool will usually erase the image first. Undo does work, but it always puts the image back as the top layer. Other whiteboard apps have images and post it notes not erasable with the eraser tool and require the selector tool and a delete button. Something like that would be better.

 

Secondarily, I would like to be able to paste images in during the live whiteboard. Currently I have to have the whiteboard open twice. Thanks!

Use of the new persistent whiteboard in zoom meetings. - Why can't i add images in a meeting?

Hi folks, just wondering is it just me, or has the ability to add images to a persistent whiteboard been disabled within an actual Zoom meeting? i can add them through the web interface, but once i'm IN a meeting and actually using the whiteboards, i... Show more

Hi folks, just wondering is it just me, or has the ability to add images to a persistent whiteboard been disabled within an actual Zoom meeting? i can add them through the web interface, but once i'm IN a meeting and actually using the whiteboards, i can't add images on the fly. 

This strikes me as hugely unhelpful aspect of the tech and i really don't understand it. I can only assume it's a tech issue of not being able to immediately are images. But it seems like a massive limitation.

Or is it Just due to my machine being an older MacBook? 

Feedback graciously accepted.

We want to build out 100 or so rooms with Neat Bars and replace the physical whiteboards on the other walls with DTEN D7 digital whiteboards. It's a shame to find out that Companion Whiteboards don't work with Zoom Appliances, only macOS or Windows based Zoom Rooms. 

 

Any ideas + roadmap for this functionality?
