RaidWhiteboard is a lightweight in-game whiteboard for World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King 3.3.5a.
Draw strategies, mark positions, explain mechanics, or quickly sketch out ideas directly inside the game. Raid/party leaders and assistants can share the board with the group.
Features
- Freehand drawing with adjustable line thickness
- Text placement
- Multiple colors
- Eraser
- Undo/redo of locally made changes
- Synchronization (drawing transmission) can be enabled or disbaled
- Presentation mode shows or hides the clients' boards
Opening/closing the board
Use /rwb or click the RaidWhiteboard minimap button to toggle local board visibility.
Drawing
Click Enable Drawing in the board menu.
You can then choose between:
- Pen — freehand drawing
- Text — place text on the board
- Eraser — remove drawings and text
Choose a color and line thickness to customize your markings.
Sync
Sync controls outgoing synchronization.
When Sync is enabled, your changes are sent to the group. You can disable it while preparing a strategy and enable it when you are ready to share your changes.
This allows a raid leader or assistant to prepare a board without immediately sending every change to everyone else.
Presentation
Presentation controls whether the board is displayed to the group.
When Presentation is enabled, the board is shown to the other group members. It does not transmit drawings by itself — synchronization is handled separately.
This means you can prepare a board with Sync disabled and only present it when you are ready.
Background
The background button on the board cycles through three local display modes:
- T — Transparent
- D — Dark
- H — Light
The background setting is local to each player and is not synchronized. Choose whichever mode provides the best contrast with your current environment.
Permissions
Raid/party leaders and raid assistants have access to the board controls and can present the board to the group.
Players who are not leaders or assistants can still see the board when it is presented to them, but they cannot control the group presentation.
When playing without a group, the player has full local control and can use the whiteboard freely.
