Adobe Connect V-8.1 The Participant’s Screen and how to use it

The Participant’s Screen

The Chat Area: The chat area is just like the one that we had in CU-See-Me. You can type your comments in this box and then by clicking on the enter key or the bubble to the right of this box you will sent it to all. 1

Cu-See-Me Style Screen 3 1

The Participant’s Screen The Sharing Area: The Sharing area is for the presenter, study leader or speaker. It is an area for Power Point presentation, video, pictures or a white board to write or draw on. 2

The Participant’s Screen The Attendee List: This area is for a list of those attending the convention, conference or study. The names appear automatically according to what the participant types in when they enter the room. It helps if those attending type in their full names, not just Bro. Laddie as I did here. You might have a second list with those physically present in a room at a study. 3 4

The Participant’s Screen Other PODS: Other PODS can be added by the presenter for Presenters Notes, References, Links and etc. These are usually restricted for the uses of the presenter or host, but might be used by a scribe for the meeting. 5 6

Adjusting the Size of the Type

Pod Menu: Each individual can adjust the size of the type on their personal computer to reflect that which they like.

Private Chatting If anyone wants to chat privately, hover your mouse's cursor over the person's name that you wish to chat with, then click on the balloon that opens (Start Private Chat). This will open a tab under this public chat window. Click on that tab and type away! :-) When you send, it will open a tab on the recipient's window.

Restart Adobe Connect If the HOST restarts Adobe Connect then each individual connection must shut down and be restarted. You might not be able to hear audio.

Trouble Shooting If you have NO SOUND: – Check to see if your speakers are turned off. – If you have ear phones or external speakers attached… unplug to see if that helps. – If the above fails, run the Audio Wizard.
