.Annotation tools are drawing and text tools used to draw attention to content. Annotation tools can be used on any content item where they appear, such as a whiteboard, picture or PowerPoint presentation, to add diagrams or draw attention to a portion of the center stage area. Participants do not see Annotation tools until the presenter gives them access through the Tools to manage people and room features .
Preserve annotations on slides from one room to another by dragging and dropping the slides from room to room, dropping them in the content area. If you drag a content item to the desktop or export it, the annotations become part of the slide.
Note: Annotations are only available for viewing to Chromium* users.
