Participating in a Conference

To send a message to all conference participants, type the text you wish to broadcast in the box under the All Users window and click Send.

If you wish to only chat with certain members of a conference, click the chat button next to the participant you want to add to your private conversation, and select Create a New Conversation with Participant. A tab that contains the participant's name appears in the chat window. Any text you send or receive under this tab is only visible to those in your private conversation.

To add more participants to your private conversation, select the conversation to which you want to add a participant, click the chat button next to the person you wish to add and select Add Participant to Selected Conversation.

If you have multiple private conversations running at the same time and a new message arrives in a

conversation that isn't selected, the chat balloon icon appears with horizontal lines.

To end a private conversation, click the exit button in the tab you wish to close. When you close a tab, the remaining members of the conversation see a notification that you've left. They're still able to chat privately with each other even if you started the conversation.

NOTE: You can't close the All Users chat window.

If you receive a message while not viewing the lobby screen or the participant list, a notification

bubble appears. The participant list icon turns green, flashes three times, and then remains green until you view the new message.

Click the notification bubble to open a chat window and view the incoming message.

Taking Over Sharing

At any point during the conference, you can ask to take over sharing and make your desktop visible to the other participants.

NOTE: This option is not available if the owner or presenter has disabled sharing requests.

To take over sharing

1. In the See&Share software toolbar, select Menu > Share My Desktop.
