Buttons with presentation options

Side-by-side: Before this needed to be set manually beforehand. Not anymore though! Using the buttons at the bottom of the broadcasting screen you can now easily switch between the presenter and the presentation. You can turn side-by-side on and off yourself during the live webinar. After uploading your presentation you have the option to set the ratio between presenter and the slides.

Overview last sent private chat messages

As presenter you now have a new mode for private conversations: messages. This is where you can switch between ‘Conversations’ and ‘Last messages’. The option ‘Last messages’ will give you a clear overview of all the last sent chat messages.

This can be pretty useful during your Q&A sessions! You don’t need to open separate private messages to see what people are sending. When you click on a message you open a conversation, which is when a message will be marked as read. This helps you give an answer during the Q&A session and helps you see which questions still need to be answered!
