Microsoft Whiteboard new update brings more colors.
New pen colors and thicknesses
Responding to popular demand, we’ve added 10 new pen colors and three more pen thicknesses, allowing Whiteboard users to express themselves more colorfully and boldly than ever. To access the new colors and thicknesses, click on the pen you have selected to pop up the palette.
Background colors and gridlines
Just like it’s great to have options for pen color, customizing the look and feel of the board itself can help your ideas stand out – and can make your boards more usable and readable as well. Whiteboard now offers nine options for board color and eight types of gridlines that can be used together or separately to customize your boards’ backgrounds. These options are selectable in the Settings menu for any board.
Type text directly using the keyboard
We know not every device takes pen inputs – and even if it does, not everyone has the neatest handwriting! And though sticky notes are great for typing comments, sometimes you just want something a little more direct. For those who would rather type straight on the board, we now have you covered: just select the text entry option from the contextual menu (right-click/long tap to view), and type to your heart’s content.
There are only about 10 colours! Very disappointing. May as well just use Paint. Paint has more pen and brush thicknesses and textures as well. Whiteboard is a total let-down and not worth having.
You are wright, but this is only applied to PC. On multi-board touch devices, this app works very well, very useful in the Education sector.
