Freezing the whiteboard to current screen
Our teachers have requested to have a feature where they can freeze the whiteboard to the current state rather than it being movable with hand to the next white board empty space. The idea is to give the ability to the user to freeze the current whiteboard state so that users can write only on that white board and then if need be, unfreeze it to move to the next empty state. Currently it just moves and at times when teachers are writing it just moves randomly.
We are working on a new whiteboard experience that features a canvas that could be zoomed all the way out to lock it from panning. Stay tuned for something to come into the beta channel in October.

On the new white board update, the zoom feature is great. However, having writing "locked" by default would be useful. Teachers have gone to zoom in and out and the words or images they have written start moving instead of the zoom feature clicking in.

Were you able to create a freeze option for whiteboard/player? I just saw the 3.2.2006 update and we are still having trouble with the usable area moving around, expanding, zooming, etc when students are trying to work with an object. We have the 6065 G2 and AM 40. If there is already a way to do this, I would really appreciate a link to instructions. Thanks!
