Local/Remote Button



The Local/Remote button toggles the slide window between Remote Mode and Local Mode.

In Remote Mode you are passively watching slides from other participants in the conference. If someone else in a conference named 'Freida' sends a slide, it will show up in your slide window:

  Note how the buttons stacked up and the window has resized to fit the image. Auto-resizing is an option in the Options Popup Menu. The sender of the slide can move a cursor around on the slide all participants in Local Mode will see moving, and that can control cueing up slides that have already been received.


In Local Mode you can make new slides, browse the slides in your queue, and send slides to other participants. As the sender of the slide, you can move a cursor around on the slide that other participants will see moving. When you click the cursor down, any other participants who still have that slide and are in Remote Mode will cue to the slide and have their remote cursors updated.
