12 New features for Microsoft Whiteboard in Teams

[@carlosortuno8602]

This is an awesome video Mike! Thanks. As a teacher I was thinking whether this is ok to use with students or I could have some delete each other's work...

1:42 - Follow is not available in our EDU tenancy. Is it somehow disabled by an admin? Or is the feature no longer available? Very frustrating

[@kaneward688]

I love you ️️️Thank you for the videos

Hi, Mike. Learned a lot! Several of these features are active for my whiteboards, but the options for My Templates and Shared with me aren't there. Any idea why?

[@camackay]

Thanks, I enjoy the whiteboard features. Is it available to use with external participants in a meeting yet?

[@MSCGriffithUniversity]

Thanks Mike! I'm particularly excited about the Follow me feature. I see from the Roadmap that it's rolled out in Dec 2022, but I can't see it in our (Edu) tenancy - is it not yet available for education users? Could it be that our tenancy just hasn't enabled it? Or (most likely) am I just being silly and can't find it?

Is the template sharing ability limited to a specific version? I don't have access to that feature, but have everything else.

[@TheOnlyPommyman]

In case anyone cares and it's not stated in a heap of these videos for who knows why, this feature is limited to specific plans of MS Whiteboard under Microsoft365, so if it's missing it may be your plan that doesn't support it. Such a pain in the butt as it should be available to all.

great video. My favorite simple feature that Miro has is you can toggle to a "navigate" only mode. this way you don't accidentally click on a sticky note or move something accidentally when you just want to view the white board. Does Microsoft Whiteboard have this feauture?

[@MikeTholfsen]

Yes, you can switch the board to "read-only" for everyone else

[@rogerheckly3136]

Thank you for sharing this! Helpful functions.

[@noahhadro8213]

@@MikeTholfsen what about for myself. Can I easily toggle between read only and edit? Sometimes I do a ton of work and then I just want to walk through the white board. It is so annoying when I accidentally move things when I am just presenting. Thanks so much for your help.

[@acradic]

I think you can select everything, right click, and lock it. That would stop stuff from moving around.

[@AshieduJude]

The video import removed

[@sultansaeed7136]

They still suffer from the poor quality of the inserted image and pdf.

Office 365 add language Bangali Bangladesh. Many ueers here

[@deanvukovic9069]

All crap. They can't even bring and make cool ringtones in teams, seriously. I never liked teams. When they put documents in teams at work, hate that.

[@httr21skins]

Nobody cares

[@pavelp7148]

Useless video, and there is no whiteboard available in Microsoft Teams, well, at least in my version of Teams.
