Hi!

Whiteboards do not support characters in Polish language- they appear when copied to whiteboard from another location, but I cannot directly put them usuing usual shortcuts.

Anyone manage to change language of input / change font style to one that is compatible not only with standard alphabet characters?

Hello,

I am tutoring a student and want to use a whiteboard during our meetings, but the whiteboard option never shows up when I go to screen-sharing options. I have read many articles and checked several settings, such as making sure annotations and whiteboards are both enabled, however, I cannot get the whiteboard option to show up when I am in a session. Is there something I am overlooking?

Thank you!

I'm having issues with the whiteboard that I didn't have before it was updated.

 

1.  People in my meetings cannot see the whiteboard although my screen shows it is being shared.

 

2.  When I save it, it's a mess so has to be heavily reconfigured before I can share it.

 

3.  In the page preview function, only the first page shows there is content, but when you click on subsequent pages, the content is there.

 

I'd appreciate any tips/advice.  One short rant, why did Zoom change something that worked well to something that is more cumbersome and less effective?

Laggy response in whiteboard

Hi folks. I have a XP-Pen Artist 15.6 Pro that I use for the whiteboard feature with Zoom. It has worked *flawlessly* up until the last update from Zoom over the weekend. Now it is laggy and almost unusable. The issue isn't with the drawing tablet, i... Show more

Hi folks. I have a XP-Pen Artist 15.6 Pro that I use for the whiteboard feature with Zoom. It has worked *flawlessly* up until the last update from Zoom over the weekend. Now it is laggy and almost unusable. The issue isn't with the drawing tablet, it works fine with Paint 3D.

 

But when I use the "Share/Whiteboard" feature in a Zoom meeting, I can start to write and sometimes it writes when the stylus touches the tablet surface and sometimes it doesn't.

 

Does anyone know if the update broke the whiteboard feature in Zoom?

 

Thanks.

Hi,

 

If I write on the white board with a wacom tablet, it always register my fast writing as double tapping, so I keep entering and exiting the fullscreen mode when writing. It is very disruptive. Is it possible to turn off this feature and just stick a button to full screen somewhere? Thanks.

 

There was a discussion like this before but it was not noticed.

 

Best,

 

Cathy
