Hello,

 

We are facing a difficulty with the Whiteboard application. We created a whiteboard into our account with differents elements that we'd like to share with the participants to our meeting, while they are spread OUT into the different break out rooms.  The objective is for them to have access and be able to edit the whiteboard from the different break out rooms.

But it seems that they can only create a new whiteboard within the break out room, the cannot use the one already created by our organisation. The participants are not part of our organisation and we cannot share our account with them.

We would like to know if this is possible to share and edit a prepared whiteboard from the break out rooms ? and if so, which instructions should we follow ?

 

Thank you so much in advance,

Hi,  I am new to this.  I have a chromebook and I try to run zoom on it.  I installed the app and have tried running meeting from both the browser and the app.  In both cases I have encountered one common issue that I really need help with.

 

When I start my meeting (being a host), I can create a new whiteboard and I can use the pen tools on the left to change pen type, color, etc which is great.  However, I found that the participants cannot write on the whiteboard. I have tried to use a window based PC to start the meeting and I think can give remote access right for the participants and they will be able to write on the whiteboard to interact with me.  How can I do this on a chromebook?

 

Also, a second problem is that when I close the first whiteboard, and when I create a second whiteboard, I (the host) no longer see the "pen tools" on the left and I can only move the whiteboard, and not able to write on it even as a host.  How come?  I have to leave the meeting and then re-join in order to see the pen tools re-appear on the left.  What am I missing?  Again, this is never a problem when using the window based zoom.

Resolved! Whiteboard can't be edited by others

For the last few weeks, nobody else in my Zoom meetings has been able to edit the whiteboards that I share. The toolbar doesn't show up for them, so they can view the whiteboard, but they can't make marks or changes on it. I see this setting in my Zoom account for "access level" is grayed out for some reason and can't be changed to allow everyone to  be an editor. How do I fix this?

Resolved! Display a map - allow participants to add pins

I'm going to hold a zoom meeting for a virtual community workshop. Is it possible to use the whiteboard feature to display a city map (pdf) and allow workshop participants to place markers (preferably in 4 colors) on the map? Thanks for your ideas. Show more

Hello,

Is there a way to reduce the size of the whiteboard in a zoom meeting? Currently, it takes up most of the screen and the images of participants are very small. I need to see the participants faces more clearly while posting information on the white board.

 

If the white board cannot be reduced, is that an add on that will allow me to type, post images and videos in a smaller windows during a meeting?

 

Thank you

Setting up a board for a cohost.

I have a meeting scheduled where the cohost would like to setup a whiteboard in advance of the meeting. How do I give them access prior to starting the meeting?

Hello. I am using very small whiteboards. When I try to open them in a new window or the Desktop app, they almost always get stuck on the “shortcut tip” screen sometimes for minutes and won’t display the content. 

Is there a shortcut to dismiss this screen? An option to turn it off for this Board?

 

I am about to share a whiteboard with over 100 users, and I don’t want them to have the same issue (people I had test it out for me did have the issue too).
