New Whiteboard

Saludos. I am conducting English classes via a simple Zoom room. I see the new Whiteboard, which looks fantastic. I am unsure of how to share with the Zoom meeting.  I need simple clear instructions. I have investigated the available tutorials but remain in the dark.  When I am in a meeting, I can click Share then whiteboard, but I only see the old-style whiteboards. Any clarification you can offer me will be appreciated. Thank you.

    @EnglishClass The step that you mentioned is when you want to share a new-blank whiteboard.

    If your aim is to share your current whiteboard while you are presenting, you just need to share a desktop, then drag your Zoom application on that shared desktop. 

    To show Zoom Windows, go to your Zoom Desktop App Settings, Share Screen, show my zoom windows to other participants when I share my screen.

    That is a very easy solution. I am banging my head with my hand. 😂

    @EnglishClass , In the updated version of the Zoom client you can now select "Whiteboard" as an option to share the whiteboard only. 
    1. Click "sharescreen"

    2. From the pop-up window select "whiteboard"
    3. Select "share" button
    Everyone in your meeting can now see only the whiteboard you are sharing, you can easily stop sharing by selection the "stop sharing" button.

    I am looking for a way for participants to also write on the Whiteboard.  I used to know...  Help!

    Hello @Mines!

     

    I think you will find @Palmer 's post on enabling in-meeting whiteboard collaboration helpful. Please take a look and comment on the post if you have any further questions:"How to enable in meeting collaboration on whiteboards"
