Reference

v2.16.53

Released May 10, 2025

Improvements

This release includes the following changes:

  • For security and compliance, the regions parameter used when joining a whiteboard room now distinguishes between domestic and international data centers.
  • To prevent memory overflows caused by image uploads in formats such as base64, the src path for inserted images must now be a URL that starts with http or https.

v2.16.51

Released on July 28, 2025.

New features

Alternative API domains

To ensure the connectivity of API calls, this version adds the following alternative API domains, which will be automatically selected during SDK initialization:

DomainCovered region
api.whiteboard.sd-rtn.comCN, India, Singapore
api.baiban.shengwang.cnCN
api.whiteboard.rtelink.comUS, EU
api.netless.linkCN, India, Singapore
api.whiteboard.agora.ioUS, EU

Improvements

This version includes the following improvements:

Optimized WebSocket transmission experience

To address the issue of slow whiteboard room joining, this version includes the following improvements:

  • Optimized WebSocket reconnection algorithm to improve reconnection speed.
  • Added onConnection event to report that WebSocket is connected and is downloading the whiteboard snapshot data of the current room to restore the room state. You can use this callback event to prompt users that the whiteboard room is loading.

Other improvements

This version also includes the following improvements:

  • Improved the algorithm for determining whether the cursor hits a graphic when the graphic has a fill color, optimizing the graphic selection experience.
  • Added a timeout parameter to the screenshotToCanvasAsync method to set the image loading timeout. If the image loading exceeds this time, the SDK will directly proceed to the next drawing operation without waiting for the image to load completely.
  • Added a commandWheelToZoom property to ConstructRoomParams to implement zooming the whiteboard by holding down the command key and scrolling the mouse wheel on macOS devices.
  • Optimized the button style of the "Transparent" fill color in the floating bar.

Fixed issues

This version fixes the following issue:

  • The error message AkkoSocket can't emit when phase is connecting that appears in the console when connecting to WebSocket for more than 2 seconds.

API changes

Added

  • onConnection
  • The timeout parameter in the screenshotToCanvasAsync
  • The commandWheelToZoom parameter in ConstructRoomParams

v2.16.49

Released on July 28, 2025.

New features

Fill closed shape elements

MemberState adds the fillColor property, which is used to set the fill color of closed shape elements such as circles and rectangles.

Automatic switch to select tool

MemberState adds the following properties to automatically switch to the select tool after using the corresponding whiteboard tool:

  • textCompleteToSelector: Automatically switch to the select tool after typing with the text tool.
  • rectangleCompleteToSelector: Automatically switch to the select tool after drawing a rectangle.
  • ellipseCompleteToSelector: Automatically switch to the select tool after drawing a circle.
  • straightCompleteToSelector: Automatically switch to the select tool after drawing a straight line.
  • arrowCompleteToSelector: Automatically switch to the select tool after drawing an arrow.
  • shapeCompleteToSelector: Automatically switch to the select tool after drawing a triangle, bubble, or other shapes.

Whiteboard drawing performance optimization strategy

The joinRoom method adds the optimizeOptions parameter to set the performance optimization strategy for whiteboard drawing. The performance optimization options include:

  • Adjusting the refresh interval of whiteboard drawing: A lower refresh interval provides smoother stroke display but has a higher resource consumption, while a higher refresh interval may result in laggy strokes but has a lower resource consumption.
  • Using single canvas drawing: By default, the whiteboard uses two canvases alternately to avoid flickering on some devices during drawing. Using a single canvas drawing can eliminate redraws and reduce performance consumption.
  • Using floating canvas: When writing on the whiteboard, after enabling single canvas drawing, a floating canvas of approximately 256 x 256px is generated based on the drawing position. When subsequent drawings are within the range of this floating canvas, the synchronization of strokes is limited to this floating canvas, reducing performance consumption.

Improvements

This version includes the following improvements:

  • MemberState adds the textSizeOverride property, which is used to set the default font size of the text tool. If not set, the default font size used will be the same as the last created text element.
  • The room.useNativeClipboard property is added to set whether to use the native clipboard. When enabled, the whiteboard shortcuts for copy and paste in HotKeys will be disabled and replaced with the native copy and paste events.
  • DisplayerCallbacks adds the onBackgroundError callback to report background image loading failure.
  • RoomCallbacks adds the onObjectsLimit callback to report when the number of elements in the whiteboard exceeds the limit. When the limit is reached, the frontend will throw warnings and events.
  • ImageInformation adds the crossOrigin property to set whether to load images in a cross-origin manner. It is enabled by default.
  • The room class adds the syncMode property. When set to true, synchronization will be more frequent but may slightly affect animation smoothness.
  • A floating toolbar is displayed when selecting graphic elements, such as rectangles and circles, drawn on the whiteboard.
  • The clearUndoHistory method is added to clear the undo history.
  • Setting cursorAdapter: false can hide the built-in cursors, such as the laser pen, eraser, and so on.
  • Text elements now have a fixed line height to avoid display differences across platforms.

Fixed issues

This version fixes the following issues:

  • Memory leaks caused by not destroying certain listeners when exiting the room.
  • Exception errors when read-only users pressed the Esc key.
  • Occasional display errors when drawing dashed lines.
  • An issue where erasing text with the eraser tool on touch devices did not work properly.
  • Occasional white screen when entering the room without any error messages.
  • Copied and pasted text elements could not be selected.
  • The persistent highlight of the text box content after deselecting the text box.

v2.16.37 was released on December 2, 2022.

New features

1. Whiteboard tool updates

This release adds new features for the following whiteboard tools:

  • Ellipse: Press the Alt or option button to draw a circle with the cursor as the center.
  • Pencil:
    • Draw straight lines: The user can press shift to draw a straight line.
    • Draw dotted lines: Add dottedLine: true in room.memberState to enable this feature.
    • Writing performance: Adds support for adjusting the balance between the performance and the quality of the pencil tool by modifying the NewPencilWritingQuality enum.
  • Text: Adds support for directly selecting and editing whiteboard text by adding textCanSelectText: true in room.memberState.

In addition, this release adds a pencil eraser tool to erase any part of a pencil stroke.

2. Screenshot to canvas

This release adds the screenshotToCanvas method to take a screenshot and write it to canvas.

Fixed issues

This release fixes the following issues:

  • The recall and redo function sometimes got reset after the user switched pages or reconnected.
  • Some fields in room.setMemberState() could not be saved locally.
  • The floatBar did not work properly on some touch devices.

API changes

Added

  • New properties in the MemberState class: dottedLine and textCanSelectText
  • NewPencilWritingQuality
  • screenshotToCanvas
  • New value in the ApplianceNames enum: pencilEraser

v2.16.24

v2.16.24 was released on September 13, 2022.

New features

1. Text editing

To support custom text editing options, this release adds the following APIs.

  • insertText: Inserts text at a specified position.
  • updateText: Modifies the specified text.
  • updateSelectedText: Modifies the font style of the currently selected text, including font size, color, bold style, and italic style.

You can use these APIs to customize the text input box and editing toolbar.

This release also adds the textColor, bold, italic, underline, and lineThrough properties to MemberState to provide richer text editing options. When you use the text tool provided by the Whiteboard SDK but want to customize the text editing toolbar, you can set the floatBar property in JoinRoomParams as false and edit the text using the new properties in MemberState.

This release deletes the updateTextFontSize method. Instead, you can use updateSelectedText or textSize in MemberState.

2. Image rotation

This release adds the disableRotation property to WhiteWebSdkConfiguration to enable or disable image rotation. The SDK enables image rotation by default, which allows users to rotate the selected image by any angle. If you want to disable the rotation, you can set disableRotation(true).

3. Tween animation

This release adds the tween animation feature for the pencil tool. When a user draws or writes with the pencil, the SDK automatically inserts frames between keyframes so that to remote users see a smoother drawing process, but this feature increases latency.

This release also adds the disableCurveAnimes property to WhiteWebSdkConfiguration for enabling or disabling the tween animation feature. The tween animation feature is enabled in the SDK by default. To disable it, you can set disableCurveAnimes(true).

Tween animations take effect only when disableNewPencil is set as false.

4. Disabling the stroke effect

This release adds the disableNewPencilStroke property to WhiteWebSdkConfiguration to enable or disable the stroke effect of the pencil. The default value of disableNewPencilStroke is true, and the SDK enables the stroke effect immediately when you set disableNewPencil(false) to enable the new pencil. To disable the stroke effect after setting disableNewPencil(false), you can call disableNewPencilStroke(true).

The stroke effect takes effect only when disableNewPencil is set as false.

5. Getting the scene information

This release adds the getScene method to the Displayer class, which supports using the scene path to get the information about a specified scene.

6. Scene callbacks

This release adds the createScenesCallback method for creating a listener object for a scene directory. After the listener object is successfully created, when the scenes and subdirectories in the specified scene directory change, the SDK triggers the callbacks you have registered in ScenesCallbacks to report the scene events.

7. Reporting exceptions that occur when playing the media file in a dynamic PPT slide

This release adds the onPPTMediaPlayError callback to report exceptions that occur during the playing of the media file in a dynamic PPT slide.

Improvements

  • Optimizes the UI of the text editing floating bar (floatBar), and saves the text format set by users on the floating bar.

Fixed issues

This release fixed the following issues:

  • The error code returned when joining a room failed was inaccurate.
  • After rejoining a room, room.state.memberState returned the initial state of the room, rather than the current state.
