What's new?
Introducing the Polling Widget! Now you can easily add a custom poll to the board with a single question to the audience. This can be configurable to allow a single response for remote users or infinite responses so users can participate on a single device.
Introducing Dashboard Filters! Now you can filter by tag, creator, or access level. Simply press the filter button on the rights side of the search field to access filter options.
Introducing the Laser Pointer cursor mode! Now you can convert your cursor to a laser pointer with a visual tracer effect. This is useful when you want to direct the audience to a particular visual on the screen.
Introducing the Spinner Widget! Now users can spin the wheel to select a random result. This is useful when you want to have a raffle or other exercises requiring a random selection.
Introducing the Reactions Widget! Now you can add a set of emojis for the audience to share quick feedback. When a user clicks an emoji, it will animate upwards in a random location on the screen.
Enhancements
Now you can swipe to page documents. On large displays, this conveniently allows you to navigate a wide document without reaching to the other side of the document.
The dashboard user interface has been updated for a cleaner look.
On the dashboard, board tiles now load more quickly and dynamically load results as you scroll.
As a template designer, now you can trigger a button action based upon a video asset's timeline. You can create an action to play a video so you can auto-advance and auto-start videos in different board locations.
Now you can update the thickness of a drawing via the drawing's asset context menu. Simply use the available buttons to increase or decrease the thickness of the selection.
While drawing a straight line, now you can hold the shift key to restrict the line to 15 degree increments. Similarly, you can hold the shift key while in freeform mode to draw a straight line.
When toggling between the pen and the eraser, the line style is now maintained. It will only reset when entering cursor mode.
Now there is a board setting to automatically direct users to the dashboard after a period of inactivity. This is useful when devices are open but no one is actually present.
Resolved Issues
When accessing Alleo call settings, the video preview in the modal is now actively rendering the webcam video so it is easier to identify and update the current device.
We resolved an issue with board tile thumbnails when creating a board from a board template.
An issue has been resolved when a board owner selects a currently selected slide.
We resolved an issue when double clicking text in a Notepad. It no longer zooms into the Notepad asset.
To avoid disrupting users, we only show the "muted" notification once per session.
