Hello Denis, sorry for the silence, I don't have much free time right now, so answering with delay ...
1) "PDF scrolling" it is currently implemented but "on page level" i.e. the page will follow moderator, not position on page This task is not trivial due to the fact every room user can have his/her own zoom ... Currently office files are being converted into PDF, PDF is converted to set of PNG files, each PNG file (one slide) is set as background for it's own WB (this is why it is unmovable) The only enhancement I can see here: try to convert office document to SVG and load this SVG to WB using native fabricjs import But the result might be very far from perfect :(((( 2) "real time effect when writing in a text box" - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENMEETINGS-1428, this is possible but will produce lots of requests. And maybe someone prefer to "publish final work", how this can be handled? (We can do some sort of feature list for M3) 3) "real time drawing" - also possible (same remark as above 4) "video pods area" - was requested multiple times, has some open questions: * what if there are lots of video pods and/or they doesn't fit the screen * what should happen is users uses multiple video sizes: 120x90 to fullHD 5) "room design": interview room was re-designed on user request (commercial support) Customer has provided mockup of interview room layout. I'd love to see new layout for "regular" room :) On Sun, 16 Jun 2019 at 09:37, Denis Noctor <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi there Maxim, > > If its okay with you I thought I could run a few cosmetic "enhancements" > by you. > > PDF Scrolling - Let's say you have a PDF, doc, ppt file whereby the length > of a page is longer than the screen view, once a moderator scrolls down to > the lower part of the document... could that be emulated on another user's > screen also?
