Zoom whiteboard zooming

I love that the board is huge, and I can zoom and pan. BUT other people's view doesn't zoom and pan with me, they have to zoom and pan themselves. This could be nice as an option, say when someone is drawing something on another part of the whiteboard so it will be ready when we get to it; but there should be a way for a presenter to have everyone's view track theirs. Perhaps individuals can be allowed to disconnect from that, or not, with another preferences switch.

 

Right now people get lost when I move to another part of the huge board.

Thank you in advance. Regards, Marco

Main meeting whiteboard is blank after returning participants from a breakout session

I have a whiteboard in use throughout a meeting. During a meeting, some participants might from time to time be placed into a breakout room (there's no need for them to use/access a whiteboard during these breakout sessions).

 

It seems that, if a breakout session occurs during a meeting, that the main whiteboard for that meeting is blanked out once participants return from their breakout sessions - so the whiteboard content from before the breakout sessions is lost.  Is there a way to prevent this happening? ie for a whiteboard to persist throughout the duration of a meeting regardless of breakout sessions?

Suddenly, I am having trouble with my meetings crashing and kicking me out when I try to share the whiteboard or computer screen. It seems to happen more in the morning meetings than later in the day. The chat bot says to update Windows, but I don't want to update to Windows 11. I tried deleting Zoom Client and reinstalling it, but it is still happening. Does anyone have advice for me?
