New Pointer/Hand Tool for Navigating Whiteboards and Alignment View (Beta)

Whiteboards and Alignment View are 2 of the most used pages within Gtmhub. Whiteboards allow you to collaborate on ideas around the OKR process, whilst Alignment View provides transparency and allows you to see the bigger picture with how all OKRs are linked. Due to many companies' reliance on these key features of Gtmhub, we understand that both Whiteboards and Alignment View can become very expansive and thus hard to navigate. Not anymore - we've released beta testing of the new pointer/hand tool to help navigate with ease.

Solution

To combat the cumbersome navigation, we have introduced the ability to switch between 2 navigation modes in Whiteboards and Alignment View, the Pointer and the Hand. The hand is the newest addition and allows users to "grab" the canvas by clicking on it, then move it using the mouse controls. This provides a better, more consistent navigation that's consistent with other tools on the market, and makes navigating a breeze allowing you to find what you're looking for effortlessly.

In both navigation modes, the zoom in and out functions remain available from controls on the canvas or by using keyboard shortcuts for Windows and Mac.
