I teach  via Zoom and I use the Zoom Whiteboard every day.
I really like it, but there a some features I would like so see.
- a better shape recognition, like other apps eg. goodnotes, noeful... have. 

- a lasso tool, not only a rectangle

- better pdf import

- dark toolbar when in darkmode

- better writing experience on ipads and with graphics tablets ( pen often gets stuck)

Oh, I almost missed one of the most important points!

- Ability to set e default font and font size

It is really annoying to have to change the font every time I use a new Textbox

Feature Request: Adjustable Border & Line Widths

One small but powerful improvement would be the ability to adjust the width of borders and lines (for shapes, connectors, and drawn lines).

Embedded video in the whiteboard not showing up for participants

I'm using Zoom to teach online English lessons to a young student. I embedded videos into the whiteboard but my student sees a static image, she can't hear or see the video. I also tested this with a second computer, and faced the same issue. As a host I can see and hear the video, but the participant doesn't hear or see the video even though I'm sharing the whiteboard. 

 

I know I can share the video from Youtube by sharing my screen, but going back and forth between the whiteboard and screen-sharing other content disrupts the in-class acitivities. 

 

I'm using zoom workspace 6.3.6 on a Mac.

 

Thanks in advance for any help.

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?

"Spacebar" doesn't work in textbox on Whiteboard

I am using a Mac and the newest Whiteboard in Zoom Workplace. If I create a text box or a sticky note, I can type in it but cannot put a space between words. However, if I click on the standard Zoom chat the spacebar works fine. Does anyone else have this issue? When I try searching Google for this issue it just keeps thinking that "Zoom" refers to making the whiteboard bigger or smaller (i.e. zooming in and out).

Hi, 

 

I inserted a PowerPoint slide deck into Whiteboard so participants could see a presentation while also viewing our meeting notes. I'm able to advance the slides on my end, but the meeting participants don't see the slides advancing (it's stuck on the first slide). Participants can manually advance the slides, but as the presenter, I want to control that. Is there a way for the host to advance slides for all participants?

Hi all,

I’ve been using zoom whiteboard for a while and today when i click on my past comments they don’t know anymore, they appreared to be glitching and unstable. I’ve restarted my laptop, restated zoom , updated the app to the latest version, used the browser, but none of them worked. For new comments, that's not a problem - if I create a new one then it works properly. Does anyone have the same problem, and if yes how did you solve it?

Thank you!

Hi, I cannot access the comments on my whiteboard. I have the Zoom app on my laptop updated to the latest version (6.3.10) have restarted the app and my laptop several times, and even opened the whiteboard in a new browser, but nothing worked. If I add a new comment then I can open it, but any other past comment can't be opened - whether it's from me or from others.
