Suddenly, I am having trouble with my meetings crashing and kicking me out when I try to share the whiteboard or computer screen. It seems to happen more in the morning meetings than later in the day. The chat bot says to update Windows, but I don't want to update to Windows 11. I tried deleting Zoom Client and reinstalling it, but it is still happening. Does anyone have advice for me?

When sharing a Whiteboard, only the upper left quadrant (about 25% of what I can see) is visible to other users. I cannot find any controls for magnification levels to set what portion of the board is being shown. How do I enable everyone in my meeti... Show more

I have been using zoom for 2 years. I save text I type onto the whiteboard for a class I teach. I am unable to go back and find that which I have saved. Where is it located? Nothing on the zoom site is helpful. No You Tube videos have the answer either. I need to retrieve this information but can't figure out how to do it.

Feature Request: More Colors for Annotating and Choice of a Background Color

I use Zoom to teach online. I love the annotation capability, but there really aren't that many colors that work well. They are just hard on the eyes, or hard to see. Could you put some effort into refining the color options, OR allow us to add custom colors?

 

Also, I love sharing a "Whiteboard," but it sure would be nice to be able to pick the color of the whiteboard, because white isn't really my preference, and there isn't enough contrast available (other than glaring red).

 

Thanks!

Hello!

I am having an issue. I do not have the whiteboard and I need it. I know to go to share screen, and it's supposed to be an option, but it isn't. Ive tried changing the settings, I have the whiteboard toggle on. I've watched videos, downloaded the latest version, everything I can think of. What am I doing wrong?

Recently our IT team set up touch screens with Zoom in our classrooms. When someone uses the whiteboard feature and they send it via email to a user logged into the session, they receive an email with a notice about the image. Is that message pre-set or is there a place to change it? I am the primary admin for Zoom but I've looked everywhere and don't see a place to modify the message. The message people receive at the moment is grammatically incorrect and it's driving me crazy, lol:

You have got images that saved from whiteboard. Please check the attachment.

As a teacher, I would really love a feature where I can turn on annotating for a particular person.  The virtual whiteboard is so tempting to my young students and they want to doodle in the corners when other students are  working  translations on the whiteboard.  Does this feature already exist? I am guessing once annotating is turned on, it is available to everyone, unfortunately. 

 

Thanks in advance.
