Whiteboard Malfunction

The whiteboard does not work well with Apple Pencil. Touch failures occur frequently. Could you fix this as soon as possible?

Thanks.

Hi everyone!

 

I would like to use a Wacom drawing board (or any other one, I don't care which one) for the whiteboard feature during a zoom call. I DON'T want to share my scree, but really use the built-in whiteboard for video calls. Does this work with a drawing tablet? And if so, do you have a recommendation?

 

Thanks for your help!

Please, I need to go back to the classic version of the old whiteboard because the new one is not working properly, actually, I can't use the new one because when I start the whiteboard my connection fails and this only happens when I try to use the new whiteboard. I'm using a whiteboard from another app, and it's not fair as I'm paying to have all the tools on Zoom. Can you help me to go back to the old version?

Resolved! stretching images in whiteboard

Hi,
Is there any way to stretch images on whiteboards? I can resize them but never change proportions and this is frustrating, because they change on each vsdx import.
Thank you,
Bert.

Hi everybody,
I am using the Zoom Whiteboard on a daily basis and I like it so far.
I used to use Goognotes or Onenote for my purposes, but the Zoom Whiteboard has some features, I really like.
A better writing and drawing experience on Ipads would be great and also a true dark mode ( toolbar is always white even in dark mode). 
There seems to be a new hold-for shape-feature, which is really great, besides that is still too slow.
I am not talking about the smart draw feature, which I have toggled off, it is really a hold-to-shape function, but both have the same problem. When I use one of those functions and draw a line next to another object it always converts my line into an arrow or something else. 
Is there any way to disable that, so that I will always just get a line and not an arrow?

Thank you.

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?

👋 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,

Zoom Whiteboard Product Team
