SYMPTOMS
When you use the highlight pen in the Whiteboard tool in NetMeeting, you
may experience the following symptoms, depending on the combinations of
colors used:
- Your pen may not overwrite the highlight color drawn by another
participant.
- Your pen may not appear to be working, or may change the colors of a
bitmap to a dark color.
CAUSE
The Whiteboard tool is optimized for a yellow highlighter on a white
background.
RESOLUTION
Experiment with different color combinations to find combinations in which
all participants can use a color without affecting the usefulness of the
Whiteboard tool.
NOTE: If you often use a bitmap on the Whiteboard, you may find that
bitmaps with white backgrounds give better results when you use the
highlighter.
MORE INFORMATION
You can use the highlight pen in Whiteboard to highlight information just
as you would use a physical highlight pen to highlight information on a
piece of paper.
