modifying and extending the whiteboard

[jcahill23]

Hi. I've been playing with the whiteboard to create a pretty basic app.

But I wanted to distable/modify some of the features that come with the native sharedWhiteboard component.

Checked out the API but couldn't find anything...at this stage would I have to modify the source code?

Was thinking of developing my own shared 'whiteboard' and using the stratus service but wasn't sure if i could transfer data P2P that isn't video or audio.

Cheers.

Hi there,

You definitely wouldn't want to build a whiteboard w/ P2P - conflict resolution becomes a huge problem (there's no guarantee everyone would be seeing the same thing).

What features are you looking to modify? You're welcome to subclass the sharedWhiteboard - everything is protected, so extending it shouldn't be too hard.
