Surface Hub Suggestion Box
Huge Surface Hub fan here. I thought I'd start a suggestion box thread. Feel free to contribute. I'll start with my next reply!

I second the OneNote App for Surface. The Surface Whiteboard emails out OneNote formatted notes, but then you can't natively edit them again, I find the note is distorted when you open it with the OneNote Web App.

you can save the .one file that is sent from the Hub in e.g. a USB, and then open it again in the Hub.

I'd like to see a way to save the Whiteboard and then be able to open again at a later date to continue. Example a team uses the Whiteboard to map out a project or such on one day and then needs to schedule another meeting to finish or continue, and be able to reopen that same whiteboard and continue.
- Daniel HudsonNov 30, 2017Steel ContributorHi Jeffrey. This is already possible. Save the Whiteboard to your OneDrive, then in your next session, open the OneDrive app, sign in, and select the Whiteboard file you want to load. It will load into the Whiteboard app and you can continue working on it.

Thanks Daniel Hudson for this! I tried it and it works, the only downside is that when you save it, to OneDrive when you are done with another session, it creates a new file and so if you used this over multiple meetings, you'd have to make sure you open the latest one, but it works.
