Bottom Tool Bar

Mute: Control your own audio output.

Start Video: Control your video output.

Invite: Use this advanced option if you want to invite users other than your site participants to participate in the meeting.

Manage Participants: Opens a pop-up window listing all participants. From this window you can:

• Mute participants
• Disable video
• Prevent other participants from sharing their screens
• Lock the meeting so no new participants can enter

Share Screen: Share your full desktop or specific windows. Starting Screen Share minimizes the main meeting window and highlights the window you are sharing (if you’re sharing a window and not the desktop). You can stop sharing at any time by clicking Stop Share.

Chat: Communicate with all participants or to send messages to specific participants by clicking on their name in the participants list.

Record: Clicking Record starts recording for the session. Recordings are stored locally on your computer in the folder set in Settings -> Recording. Participants will not be able to record sessions without the host’s permission. If a participant does record the session, the recording will be stored locally on the participant’s computer.
