About conference view

Conference view combines the content sharing from the user device with showing the cameras of the remote participants. This combination is shown on the meeting room displays. When the user device shares content, then different layouts of content and participants can be chosen depending on the user preference.

Dual screen conference view

Conference view on dual screen setups always shows content shared by the user device on the primary display and the cameras of the remote participants on the second display. This layout cannot be modified. If the connected user device is not sharing, then the conferencing app is shown on both displays.

Prerequisites

The user device that wants to share and at least one remote participant must join the meeting in the conferencing app. For more information, see the documentation of the conferencing app.

How to use

1. Is the connection with the ClickShare system already made?

   • If yes, go to step 3.
   • If no, go to next step.

2. Connect to ClickShare using one of the following methods:

   • Using the Button, “Button connection”.
   • Using the advanced Desktop App, “Desktop App connection”.

3. Is a conference view pop-up shown?

   • If yes and the sharing must happen now, click Share Microsoft Teams on the room display (reference 2) to start conference view. Go to step 5.

   • If no, go to next step.
