Actions during a meeting
As you can see in the middle part of the meeting room, there is a blank area that can be used to perform various actions during the meeting.
It is possible that in certain meeting rooms not all actions are visible for the participants, this depends on the permissions granted to the participants by the organizer of the meeting. During a webinar you will have an extra option available in your meeting room.
The following tabs are normally made standard available in the top menu of the meeting room.
Agenda
It is possible that the meeting organizer uploaded an agenda prior to the meeting. Make the best use of time by setting the agenda for the meeting in advance. When everyone is on the same wavelength, your virtual meetings are even more productive. It is still possible to adapt the agenda during the meeting.
Documents
Upload and share documents with all meeting participants for presentation, discussion, collaboration, and innovation. It is possible that the meeting organizer uploaded documents prior to the meeting. You will find these documents under this tab and will be able to download them. To add documents drag and drop them in the window or click on ‘ click to browse files’.
Screensharing
Share your entire screen or just an application window with your meeting participants by clicking on the PC in the top left corner of your interface. Participants can switch to full screen and follow your cursor while enjoying excellent quality by clicking on the enlarge icon in the top right corner of the interface.
Whiteboard
Upload a slide deck to get your point across with clear visuals and powerful text. All participants see slide changes automatically as they occur, and everyone can draw on the slides to highlight important points in real time.
Group Chat

Minutes
Take the minutes online as you go through your agenda to ensure good record-keeping and follow through on important action points. Share this task among team members and allow everyone to contribute simultaneously. These meeting minutes will be shared among all participants.
Private Notes
These are your private notes taken during the meeting and can only be viewed yourself and will not be shared with others.
Webinar
During a Webinar meeting you will have extra options available in your meeting room. (raise hand, ask question). Depending on the permissions granted by your moderator you will also be able to see the full menu of actions (agenda, screensharing, documents, etc.) or only a selection of these.
Your moderator can grant you different rights for example screensharing, video or audio, etc.
To be given those rights, you can either raise your hand or ask a question. Your raised hand or question will be seen by the moderator in his interface.
When your question is answered or the access to a specific action is granted you can again lower your hand.
