Drawing/annotating document during meeting
Whiteboard is not a suitable solution, engineering teams need to draw on the screen like other screen sharing programs like Zoom. Microsoft needs to add this ASAP... This should be a basic function, if a CAD program is being displayed by one user, another user should be able to sketch on top of it to better articulate their idea.
I agree, this is a valuable feature in Zoom and we use this all the time. Hopefully Microsoft can add this feature very soon. bfulton
I am new to MS Teams, but sn't this available via whiteboard in meetings? I just started a meeting and opened a whiteboard that gave options for me to draw only or collaborate and draw. If you mean something else, can you help me understand your question? Larry166
- the whiteboard does not seem to allow us to add images. This is really, really bad.
Whiteboard is OK but it leaves a lot to be desired if your an engineer, stylist, architect and you want to draw on top of what is being shown on the screen. other programs like Zoom have this feature. One workaround I have found is to us the "Snip and sketch" as a means to take a screen capture of 3D model my fellow engineer is displaying, then I take over as the presenter, I draw using the Snip and Sketch tool to articulate my concept and I stop presenting and the allow the Engineer with the 3D Model CAD to begin presenting again. it is painful but it works, I wish Microsoft would build Snip and Sketch tool into whiteboard, sadly its probably two different dev teams, and they do not talk...
