4 years ago What I currently do to work around this is that I try to start the conversation zoomed in on the top left, and then zoom out to find the others when I'm lost.

Thank you, yes, it works if youare completely lost, but this is not perfect if you need to draw attention to a particular area of the board. So I stll think that this would be a good enhancement.

4 years ago A kind of bookmarks available to all users would be even better. So that any user could (i) create a bookmark (ii) get a list of available bookmarks (iii) go to selected bookmark

4 years ago Well, bookmarking already works out of the box with your run-of-the-mill bookmarking facility, like so: https://wbo.ophir.dev/boards/anonymous#50419,23683,1.5
What I'd think would be extremely cool would be a "follow all users" option, like in etherpad. If enabeld, this should take you to the position (and zoom level?) of the last user writing to (i.e. painting, erasing, moving stuff around on) the current board.
I am aware that this might become chaotic on a board with many participants drawing simultaneously, that's why on etherpad (with some plugin) you can configure to follow only a selection of specific users. I think, though, that just having the option of following everybody or nobody would be sufficient to enable cooperation when needed (and possible) and disable it otherwise.
No idea how easy or hard to implement this would be.
The board canvas is very large, and this is cool. But on the other hand, during collaborative work one can easily get lost, and it would be good to have a kind of coordinate system, so that one could point others to a particular area of the board. Working with WBO directly, one can see and set this info in the link, like https://something.here/boards/boardname#xpos,ypos,zoom, but for embedded solutions like etherpad or jitsi this is unavailable. It would be nice, say, to have an indicator of the current position and a button like "go to positon" or something similar. Regatds, Vasyl
