Using Presenter tools with Cisco WebEx™ Meeting Center

• Sharing Content
• Annotation tools
• Viewing tools

Sharing Content

Sharing content can be initiated from a number of places within WebEx Meeting Center:

• Quick Start Tab - Gives the host quick access to the most commonly used sharing options via icons directly through the meeting window.
• Toolbar icons at the top of the meeting sharing tab.
• Share menu at the top of the screen.

There are three types of sharing you can choose from. Each one has its pros and cons. You should choose the one that best suits your needs.

Annotation tools

A Chairperson can turn on an annotation tool by clicking its icon in the Annotation toolbar. To close the tool, click its icon again and select Close. For more options, click the icon's downward-pointing arrow.

To grant a participant access to the annotation tools, select the individual (or the group icon ) listed in the Participant Panel using a right mouse click and modify the privileges to include Annotate.

1. Pointer - Point out text and graphics on shared content. The pointer displays an arrow with your name and annotation colour.
2. Text - Type text on shared content. Attendees can view the text you have entered after you type it and click your mouse in the content viewer, outside the text box.
3. Line - Draw lines and arrows on shared content.
4. Rectangle - Draw shapes on shared content.
5. Highlighter - Highlight text and other elements in shared content.
6. Annotation colour - Displays the Annotation Colour palette. Select a colour to annotate shared content.
7. Eraser - Erases text and annotations or clears pointers on shared content.

Viewing tools

The View Tools allow the presenter to adjust what is being seen while they are actively presenting or sharing. This toolbar can be found at the bottom left hand corner of the meeting console while a document or presentation is being shared.

1. Standard View / View Thumbnails

   Clicking Standard View displays the shared content as you would normally view it.

   To display thumbnails, or miniatures, of shared pages, slides, or whiteboards to the side of the content, click View Thumbnails.

   Click Standard View to return to normal viewing of the shared content.

2. Full-Screen View

   Displaying shared content in a full-screen view will ensure that participants are able to view all activity on your screen. Also helps to prevent participants from viewing or using other applications on their screens during a presentation. Click ESC to return to the content viewer.

3. Rotate page right / left

   Allows the presenter to rotate the presentation or document to the left or to the right if desired.

4. Document Size

   Allows the presenter to adjust the view within the meeting window to allow them to fit a larger presentation into the meeting window as well as increase the size of the view.

5. Zoom In /Zoom Out

   Lets you display shared content at various magnifications. Click this button, and then click the page, slide, or whiteboard to change its magnification.

6. Synchronize Displays for All

   For presenters, synchronizes all participants' displays with your display. Helps to ensure that all participants are viewing the same page or slide, at the same magnification, as in your display.
