You have the freedom to draw all over the whiteboard. When you upload a slide, you can annotate it with the whiteboard tools (pictured below). These tools are available to all users so be democratic - let your friends draw, draw something yourself, then clear it all and start all over again. There are quite a few elements in the whiteboard tools, so please take time to explore each of the tools to discover everything that is available.
Notes on Whiteboarding:
- When you have selected a tool or option it will highlight as active.
- You must choose a color and opacity level before you draw or add to a slide.
- The color and opacity of an object cannot be changed once placed on a slide. The default color is black and the default opacity is 100%.
- "Undo" removes the changes that you have made to the whiteboard.
- "Clear" removes all changes made to the whiteboard by any user.
- Drawings, stamps, and shapes appear in the whiteboard as you make them or as soon as you release the mouse button. However, text works differently. Text will not appear until you either click on the whiteboard or select another whiteboard tool after you have finished typing.
