Whiteboard Features
The Instructor and Presenter can use a Whiteboard in Meetings (and students, if allowed).
On the Whiteboard tool bar, at top, select a tool to click on and draw with, such as:
- A T (text), shapes (rectangle, circle, triangle), line, and a pencil (freehand drawing)
- For shapes, you can pick a thickness; for text, choose a font size
- Click on the color box to pick a drawing color
- Click on the backward arrow to undo your last action
- Click on the trashcan to clear the whiteboard
- In addition, the Instructor/Presenter can also click on the bottom whiteboard icon, "Multi-User Whiteboard" icon, to allow ALL participants to draw on the whiteboard.
- You can draw on the default presentation page, an uploaded document, or you can upload a blank document.
- To draw perfect shapes (rectangle, circle, triangle), click and hold the Ctrl or Shift key on your keyboard, then click and draw your shape.
I need a blank page to draw on!
- "Upload" and display the default presentation, as it contains blank slides:
- Click on the Actions button (a plus sign), click on "Upload a Presentation", then to the right of default.pdf, click on the circle button to display a blank page
- At the bottom middle of the presentation area, click on the next arrow, to get to a blank slide to use with the Whiteboard.
