How about just sharing window with your favourite drawing application

Tomas,

I could do this.

White board applications - part of the video conferencing - so that they
can be shared - have many disadvantages. They are typically very limited
in functionality, cannot export vector graphics and are synchronized with
everyone. That synchronization create significant lag which makes it
difficult to draw.

My intention is not to share but to emphasize certain points as I would have
done on a blackboard when lecturing to a class or leading a graduate
seminar.

For example, when a presentation has 3 take-home points, and there are no
slides being shown, writing the points as I talk about them can help the
audience to remember.

I suspect that sharing requires using someone's cloud server hosting the
software; I'd rather just show the text or crude drawing from here.

Thanks,

Rich
