What's New?

A collection of new features we've just launched in Lessonspace!

20 May 2024
Toggle whiteboard viewports

Whiteboard viewports are a great way to make sure that everyone in the Space can see the same portion of the board as you, but sometimes they can become a bit distracting. This small quality-of-life improvement will let you switch off viewports, much like you can toggle cursors and their nameplates on and off.
