Whiteboard

Hello,  I am using breakout rooms as part of an online training course. I would like the participants in the breakout rooms to be able to use (edit) a whiteboard that is pre-populated with an image. Each breakout room needs their own whiteboard, but the image is the same. Is there an easy way to do this? As a workaround, I have tried to join each breakout room and upload the image myself, but it does not always work and it is time consuming. Is there a fix for this?

Is it possible to allow participants to post and interact anonymously on a whiteboard? 

I want to be able to set the font size to automatic so that it adjusts with how much is written. Mostly the font size is really small even if I set it to Auto and at times I get it working so that it starts large and changes to smaller when more is written. Any tricks for how to get this to work? It creates a lot of challenges/stress for me when working with groups. Thanks for any advice!/Thomas

Can I export individual page (e.g. 1 page or 2 pages,..) instead of the whole whiteboard?

Hi, does anyone know if there is now the capacity for participants to use whiteboards anonymously? I want to create post it notes where people can share their thoughts without their name showing.If there is a way to ensure anonymity this will be very helpful.

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?

Hello, I held a workshop today, and I prepared various whiteboards beforehand. My plan was to have three breakout groups working on their dedicated whiteboards simultaneously. But I had no idea how to make the people getting access to "their" whiteboards. All ideas I tried failed. Sending them a link failed, they had to enter a password (?), and a pop-up said, no cursor is shown when more than five people enter the same whiteboard. All the options are "open", no restrictions, so according to the settings, everybody should be able to use it. Is it possible that ZOOM doesn't support such a situation with multiple whiteboards for multiple breakout groups? Thank you for your input,Akki

Is it possible to have participants in two different breakout rooms editing different whiteboards?If I have two breakout rooms, can each room work on a different whiteboard. I would need each breakout room to be able to see and edit their groups corresponding whiteboard page.

👋 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

This issue is plaguing my firm.  We are unable to "star" some whiteboards that that we have been sent in a URL.  I believe my access is granted through the "General Access" as follows "Only users in account [Our company]" Can Edit.  If my name doesn't explicitly appear in the Share list, the Star option does not exist for that whiteboard. Is there a global configuration item I need to get changed?

I use the Zoom Whiteboards with my Dyslexic students. I'd like to disable to spelling auto correct function. Is there a way to do that? Thank you!

Hi,Can anybody help my writing Bangla text in the whiteboard? Thank you in advance. I am using a standard windows laptop. I can type Bangla and it appears nicely in the chatbox, no problem. However, when I am typing in the TEXT BOX in Zoom whiteboard, the Bangla/Bengali text is appearing nicely while the cursor is in the text box. As soon as I am clicking outside the text box, the English text is there, but the Bangla text is becoming either boxes or disappearing completely depending on the different fonts from the zoom'z given list of fonts. By the way, I used Avro Keyboard (National Jatiya) developped by OmicronLab. Any help will be highly appreciated. 

I am looking to move to Zoom calls/whiteboards for my online tutoring business.  I want to subscribe to the Pro plan for the calls and add the Whiteboard option (rather than the full Business plan) so that I can have more than 3 boards. I want to be able to create multiple boards as templates that I will copy to individual students copies as and when they are needed. This would mean that each student may have more than 3 boards. As my students will be using a Basic plan does that mean that they will only be able to access a max of 3 boards.Any advice will be gratefully received.Best wishesSimon

Can I create more than 12 pages in whiteboard?

A new problem has come up just in the last couple of days that I have had no problems with previously. While using Zoom to tutor, I use both my MacBook and iPad. The iPad is for writing on the Zoom whiteboard. For some reason, when I write on the whiteboard on my iPad, I can see what I am writing until I lift my Apple Pencil at which point what I wrote disappears on my iPad but is visible on my MacBook and for everyone else in the meeting (including my student). As you can imagine, it is quite difficult to write on the whiteboard with my iPad when I cannot see what I have already written. Has anyone experienced this? How can I fix this? I have tried deleting and reinstalling the Zoom app on my iPad, following and unfollowing the creator of the whiteboard, and creating the whiteboard on both my MacBook and on my iPad. None of these have helped.

I'm using 5.17.5 on my iPad Pro OS 17.2 (21C62)   I see on the release notes (https://support.zoom.com/hc/en/article?id=zm_kb&sysparm_article=KB0073923) that "Users have the option to switch back to the classic Whiteboard via their meeting settings. Under In Meeting (Basic) settings, users can click the Use Whiteboard by default if available toggle to seamlessly revert back to the classic Whiteboard in their next meeting."   I'm not seeing this anywhere. Suggestions? 

I have a Powerpoint that I present in meetings. I've created a whiteboard as an interactive part of the presentation. Can I insert the whiteboard into the Powerpoint and have it remain interactive and functional? As it is not, I have to stop sharing the Powerpoint, share the whiteboard, stop sharing the whiteboard and start sharing the Powerpoint--at which point it goes back to the beginning. It's really a clunky process while you're live. I see that there is an iframe code for the whiteboard but I can't see how to insert the code on a Powerpoint slide. Any suggestions?

Кто сталкивался с такой проблемой? - зум встреча сохранилась в формате tmp, и я не могу ее никак открыть. она очень важна. как конвертировать? онлайн сервиси не получается

I started working with whiteboards today. I created two whiteboards and would like to create a third, however the system says I already have reached my 3-whiteboard limit. I only see two whiteboards on the "All Whiteboards" list, and I checked the trash but there's nothing there.  I would attach a screenshot here, but apparently I don't have permission to upload images. Any suggestions for how I can resolve this issue?

 I would like to know how I can disable iframe, url pasting and 3rd party integrations/embedding in Zoom whiteboard. This zoom app will used by young children, the relevance of question. The students can access an otherwise blacklisted website like youtube by pasting a url on the whiteboard.Although, iframes/Pexel has been turned off from Zoom's Advanced Setting page, these options are clearly available on the (Windows) App/software. The web version of zoom seemed to have responded by making those buttons non responsive.Any help is much appreciated 

I need to make a zoom recording of myself speaking with a white background.  The support chatbot seems to think that I can go to the "none" option, and set the background as white. But when I set the virtual background to "none," I just see the room I am in.   Nothing like a option for white or any other color shows up on my desktop app.   Thanks for  any help you can give!   BLShep  

has anyone found a way to run a virtual asynchronous voting session on a whiteboard, allowing users to vote over a period of time rather than in a meeting? 

Help! I'm just looking to copy a style from a shape to apply it to another in my whiteboard. Like any copy Formatting from Word, PPT, etc... I have a huge whiteboard with several dozens of shapes already and I just need to change formatting for consistency. Seems it should be simple. Only option from the chatbot was to copy and past another shape... which means also copy pasting all the text in them as well.  Anyone have a quick solution?
