How do I use drawing tools?

    Presenters can use the drawing tool to draw directly on their shared screen so that annotations are visible to all others in the session. This makes it easy to draw attention to certain parts of the screen and collaborate with others in the session.

    Currently only the active presenter on the desktop app can use drawing tools.
    1. Start sharing your screen.
    2. SelectPresenter Mode icon.
    3. In flexible view, select Drawing Tools icon then use the menu to choose the desired pen color and transparency.
      Enable Fade out drawings to automatically remove annotation after some time.
    4. Use the mouse to annotate on the shared screen.
