Infinite whiteboard - shortcuts #21105

Open antobinary opened 2 months ago

antobinary commented 2 months ago

Describe the bug In a session I allowed for both infinite whiteboard and multi user wb. Looked like only the presenter has the "hand" tool, meaning that the presenter was the only one allowed to pan/zoom around. However, as a viewer (right on the screenshot) I was able trigger the Alt+H shortcut and obtained the hand tool, being able to pan around. Something here is odd:

When the infinite whiteboard is enabled, it defaults to a mode referred to as "follow-presenter." In this mode, all users in the meeting are restricted to follow the presenter's view. This means that only the presenter should be able to pan or zoom, and viewers should not be able to pan independently.

From what I recall, @tylercopeland had some plans to introduce additional modes in the future, where viewers could pan independently, but as of now, only the presenter should have this control.

Nice! So I guess we can keep this open until then. FYI after Alt+H and going in my own direction to annotate, the presenter can disable multi user wb and it's handled correctly. So other than "why do I lack the :hand: tool?" and then "ah, the shortcut still works" all is as expected.
