Very clean and clear. Thank you, Logan.

[@ClaireRisse]

Wow, thanks for this video. This is really helpful since I'm making a demo class on Zoom. :)

[@ronaldcoaguila4165]

quite useful...thanks

[@WavesEducare]

Thank you soo much for this help🙏🙏

[@loganclements]

Happy to help!

Hello Logan, Excellent video! Can I fix the position of annotations when I want to scroll up and down the document?

[@loganclements]

Unfortunately I don't believe that you can! I've used it for marking up slides and if you then advance to the next slide, the mark-ups/annotations remain so it's like you're marking up a window and the images/content behind the window keeps changing but your marks are the same until you clear them. You can download your annotations to take a snapshot of what you've done

[@nancymackell641]

Thank you! I would like to know exactly where the file goes when you save it?

[@loganclements]

Hi Nancy, it will go wherever you've designated your Zoom files to go on your laptop. if you have trouble finding it, try searching the date of your meeting and the word Zoom on your device to find where the file went. For me, I have it saved in a Zoom folder but I had to set that up the first time since Zoom auto-saved the files to another folder.

Hi Loga, thanks for the Zoom Annotation tips/ I would like to use this feature in my Zoon screen share but I cannot get the Toolbar to display the annotation option. I have checked the settings and both Annotation and Screenshre are Enabled. I have the latest Zoom version installed, but it makes no difference. I cannot get the Annotation option on my toolbar. I would appreciate any help you can give me!

Same question, I can’t find annotation option on my iPad mini 6

[@afiqah317]

I have enabled the annotation feature in my account but it didn’t work

[@loganclements]

Hi, are you both using an iPad to try to see this function? I've only ever used it on desktop. Let me know if this is still an issue and I can investigate

[@loganclements]

Here's a video I made for where to find it on your iPad or Tablet: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pmnOnHmNgbSXkKM

Hi Logan, how do I produce the best quality sound while I’m giving a Zoom Mindfulness Meditation class? Presently, I have a good external microphone and a Bose Speaker with quiet music from my IPhone. The participants usually can’t hear the music or it breaks up as lead them through the meditation. Much Appreciated, John

[@loganclements]

Hi John, are you playing music directly into Zoom or using your phone to play it into your external mic? I have a video on how to share background music directly into Zoom that could help you with getting better sound quality

[@johnm.lacross6240]

@@loganclements Hi Logan, I use a Bose Speaker playing music from my I phone which is not connected to the Laptop. Someone said you can connect to Music with the computer and share it. Please send me your video or tips. Thank you, you are the best…..🙏

[@loganclements]

@@johnm.lacross6240 yes, you can directly play music into Zoom but it needs to come from your desktop. Here's my video walking you through how to share audio only into Zoom: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jXzXhJttiteYgtk

[@johnm.lacross6240]

@@loganclements thank you Logan. It worked and you are the best 🙏….

[@kevinholliday2066]

I have not found any keyboard shortcuts to 'clear all' drawings… do you know if that exists.

[@loganclements]

I haven't either! Let me know if you find one

[@rgaynes1]

I have turned on every thing but I still can not get the annotate option to show up

[@loganclements]

Hi, are you using your laptop/desktop or a tablet?

[@loganclements]

if you're using a tablet, I made a tutorial here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pmnOnHmNgbSXkKM
