Hey Wroot,
Cut and pasting from the clipboard sounds like a great idea, I'll add your request to our feature tracker.
Cheers,

Today i have sent a broadcast with Spark to 50 users and have got 20 answers. And then i have closed all of them often without a reply even. Now i have opened chat window with my coworker and invoked whiteboarding session. And Spark is throwing 20 dialogs asking if i want to start whiteboard session with all users i have got broadcast replies previously.
Hey Wroot,
Thanks for the feedback, we'll look into the issue you described and see if we can recreate it. Which version of the plugin were you using?
Cheers,
Ryan
as long as i remember, whiteboard icon is always shown in chat window, no matter whether contacts has plugin installed or not. Call button is only showing in chat window with contact which has Spark installed. But probably it would be hard to determine if whiteboarding is installed on the other side.
could be related to that Spark was running all the day and whiteboard screen after some time became unusable so i had to restart Spark
Being able to paste an image would be a significant addition. Speaking of which, without this ability, how did you get those images pasted onto the whiteboard in the screen capture above? Did you convert it to SVG? Also, since you essentially "paste" various types of images (e.g. bmp, gif, jpg) via the "set background" function, why allow the option to either center or stretch it (right now it stretches it). Having it centered, then it would be similar to the functionality of pasting it.
Also, in the other screenshot, you show that the whiteboard and chat window are in the same window. Is that a possible feature? That would really be great if both windows were somehow together, either docked together or the chat window embedded into the whiteboard.
Hi qbrix,
You can insert images using the image tool that is located in the lower left hand corner of the tool box.
As for attaching the whiteboard to the chat window, we could certainly make that an option. I'll add it to our feature request list.
Thanks,
Ryan
I would like to no if there is a chance of the same whiteboare for the red5 JWChat messenger as I would like to add it and am willing to as much of the work to incode and test as I can
Hi Bruce,
JWChat uses a completely different infrastructure than what is used for Spark so the whiteboarding capability would require a complete rewrite to work with that client. We're keeping an eye on Jive's transition from Spark to SparkWeb and I would guess that at some point we'll port the the whiteboard over to Flash.
Regards,
Ryan
