Pointing to an Item on the Whiteboard

You can use the Pointer Tool to point to an important item during a whiteboard presentation.

Note Audience members in a broadcast meeting cannot see the whiteboard Pointer Tool. People who view a recording of a meeting also cannot see the Pointer Tool.

To point to an item:

  1. Click the arrow next to the Pointer Tool to select a pointer. After selecting a pointer, make sure the Pointer Tool is pressed in.
  2. Click on the whiteboard next to the item you want to emphasize. A pointer appears next to the item.
  3. (Optional) To use the same pointer to emphasize something else on the whiteboard, select the pointer and drag it to the new location.
  4. (Optional) To use a new pointer to emphasize something else on the whiteboard, repeat steps 1-2. The original pointer remains on the whiteboard.

Tip You can delete a pointer just as you would delete any other whiteboard item.

Note The Pointer Tool is not saved when the Moderator saves a whiteboard file.
