Can you customize the background color with a hex code/custom color? Can you customize the pen ink color with a hex code/custom color? If not, which tool allows you to do that?

Many thanks for this extremely useful video. This whiteboard should be perfect for me to use in teaching my Italian language classes online. I just discovered your KZbin channel today, and I look forward to watching your other videos. I gave this video a well-deserved "Like."

Amazing video sir. I would want to display textbooks on this whiteboard so that I can explain the problems in the textbook and along the content in the textbook.

[@mathsbyajaysir2577]

can i make cursor here as a pen like in zoom..as if i see pen then writing is good..pls help

[@digitidea]

Normally this can be done using OS features but i have never tried this in Openboard!

[@RebekahSamuel-i2l]

thank you very much for this tutorial. From what you said and from other people's comments, it looks like this fabulous resource is more suitable for primary and middle school students. A couple of questions for you - can a writing tablet like Wacom be used in conjunction with this whiteboard? Which whiteboard app would have a graphics calculator in its tool kit?

[@digitidea]

I have many video on Wacom and another 1 or 2 videos on Openboard. One Note is also good for wacom

[@syamasundararao3149]

An excellent tool for mathematics teaching on line. Kudos.

[@digitidea]

No

[@score-e-math]

Excellent sir, pls make one more video.

[@digitidea]

Thank you, I will

[@flowyscreations]

I really love this whiteboard for teaching after doing so much search for the best ones. My only critique is the ➕ sign as a cursor instead of a pen tip. Can this be changed?

[@digitidea]

Thanks i am glad you liked

[@flowyscreations]

@digitidea can you please compare it with Xournal++? I like One Board, but the lack of a color palette for the background or the colors I choose is an issue. I also think it could have some simple shapes on the same tab where the pen, eraser, and line are located. I also like Sketchbook, but it doesn't seem to allow me to create pages like I am taking notes.

[@GeorgeTU-pi4eg]

Liked the video ,thank you for the information and looking forward for more information

Just downloaded the Mac version of this app and was wondering if there's a way to resize the OpenBoard work area. Is there? When opened it takes up the entire screen!
