time that is convenient to the user. Further, by graphically calling attention to a particular section of shared data, the need for a user to consume time and/or computing resources to manually search for and locate the content to view can be reduced or eliminated. This can reduce the utilization of computing resources like processor cycles, memory, network bandwidth, and power. [0007] In order to provide the technical benefits described above, and potentially others, a system is provided that enables users to participate in a multi-user sharing session. The multi-user sharing session might, for example, be implemented in association with a digital whiteboard presenting whiteboard objects such as, but not limited to, handwriting or hand- drawn images such as digital ink created using a digital pen or touchscreen. Alternatively, the multi-user sharing session can also be implemented in association with other types of collaborative workspaces and other configurations. [0008] Users can access a multi-user sharing session utilizing client computing devices configured with an appropriate client application. The client application can present content to the users such as, for example, on display devices (e.g., display screens) connected to the client computing devices. The content might be, for example, a digital whiteboard (e.g., a digital canvas), a word processing document, a spreadsheet document, a presentation document, an image or video, or another type of content. The content can be stored in a data unit, such as a file, on a server computer and distributed to the client computing devices participating in the multi-user sharing session. [0009] The system can display different content of shared data on different client computing devices. The different content can then be edited by different users in different sections of the shared data. Different users can edit content at the same time in the multi user sharing session. Alternatively, different users can edit content at different times in the multi-user sharing session. For instance, the multi-user sharing session can last for an extended period of time (e.g., days, weeks, months, etc.), and authorized users can access the shared data and/or edit content throughout this extended time period. [0010] The system can receive, from a client computing device of a user that wants to call attention to the content she or he has created, a request for another user to view the content. For example, a user can select a menu option that implements a feature (e.g., functionality ) enabling the user to request that the other user view the content being edited by the user. For instance, the feature essentially enables the user to graphically “raisea hand”in a multi user sharing session to call attention to a particular section of a shared file. The request can be for all the other users in the multi-user sharing session to provide attention. In other
