Video Conferences offer a range of presentation tools for Owners, Presenters, and Main Presenters. Access to these tools is determined by the user's Role, as set by the Owner. Presentation tools are available through the Share icon at the top of the screen - these include Screen, Document, Whiteboard, and Meeting Info. They are available for both Presenter and Owner Roles.
Using the Whiteboard and Document Sharing
The Whiteboard provides Presenters and Owners with the ability to brainstorm and share information, using Text and Free Draw tools. Document Sharing allows Presenters to upload a file—all Whiteboard tools are available within Document Sharing. Content shared via Document or Whiteboard will also be accessible as downloadable files from the video conference's recording as Linked Documents.
- Choose Share at the top of the screen. Select Document, to upload a Document, or Whiteboard and access Whiteboard tools without an upload.
- Drag and drop the Document file or browse for your desired file. A Whiteboard only display will simply open the Whiteboard.
- Use the arrows to move between Document pages, annotate the Document, or create a new document.
- Download finished Documents or Whiteboards for future use as PDF files or PNG images.
When saving your Whiteboard or document, only the selected page being viewed will be saved.
Sharing a Screen
Screen sharing enables you to share a variety of content with Video Conference participants, including software demonstrations, websites, or other material. If you're the Presenter for the Video Conference session, please ensure the Owner of the session has given permission to share your screen. To learn how to adjust permissions, session Owners may visit our support guide on how to Manage Permissions for Presenters in the Video Conference.
