Whiteboard Features

The 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:

  • First tool: Select a T (text), a line, shapes (circle, triangle, rectangle), and a pencil (freehand drawing)
  • Second tool: For shapes, you can pick a thickness; for text, choose a font size
  • Third tool: Click on the color box to pick a drawing color
  • Fourth tool: Click on the backward arrow to undo your last action
  • Fifth tool: Click on the trashcan to clear the whiteboard
  • Last tool: The Moderator/Presenter can 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!
