Whiteboard

We like to think of Whiteboard as infinite. Infinite possibilities for ideation and infinite possibilities for us to add more pieces of functionality to delight our customers. We have been releasing a bunch of improvements and new features ongoing since our last release, but in case you missed any, we are going to recap everything for you now.

 

New Features

  • Alignment of objects: Added the ability to see align guidelines when moving objects within the board, and the ability to multi-select objects and align them (left, right, center justified, etc.)
  • Text updates: Added underline, strikethrough, and link text to formatting. Added Header and Subheader text hierarchy. Added numbered and bulleted lists.
  • Zoom to fit all contents: Hotkey command to zoom to fit all contents of a Whiteboard.
  • Batch undo: Hotkey command to batch undo edits when many edits are done in a batch.
  • Arrows: Added arrows to objects.

A few more enhancements of features you already love

  • Send ideas grouped to Whiteboard: Organize ideas by step, status, category and lay them out in horizontal/vertical swimlanes and clustering when sending ideas from pipelines to Whiteboards.

Th Slash App was developed to quickly crowdsource cost savings ideas and help companies tighten their belt when they need to cut back and extend the runway. Slash has been added to Programs for anyone looking to pitch in and help conserve resources and maybe even save a few jobs.
