CHAPTER 13
Customizing the Meeting Room
A Breeze Live virtual meeting room, like a real meeting room, continues to exist when a meeting
ends. Everything you add to the meeting room and any changes you make to it remain after
everybody leaves it, and your additions and changes are still there when you return to the meeting
room at a later time.
Changes that are made to a meeting room during the normal meeting workflow process include
adding room content, making specific room content visible in the content pod, adding text
messages to the Chat pod, and adding text to the Note pod.
In addition to these meeting room changes, you can also completely customize the meeting room
in the following ways:
Edit the existing meeting room layouts
Add, delete, move, or resize individual meeting room
pods in an existing meeting room layout.
Create new meeting room layouts
Build layouts from scratch within the various meeting
room pods.
Once you become familiar with the Breeze meeting room, you should customize the meeting
room before any meetings with participants are held. You can add content and customize the
meeting room’s layout. As a presenter, creating custom pods is another option. For more
information about creating custom pods for Breeze Live, see the
Developing Pods for Breeze
document. Some possible scenarios for customizing the meeting room are as follows:
•
You are not going to broadcast audio or video. To maximize screen space during the meeting,
you customize the Slides meeting room layout before the meeting begins, deleting the camera
and voice pod and increasing the size of the chat pod.
•
You plan a demonstration using screen sharing and want to give participants information
about yourself and the product you are demonstrating. You customize the Screen Sharing room
layout before the meeting begins, closing the camera and voice pod and the chat pod. You
create a new Note pod called Speaker info, containing your speaker information. You then
create another new Note pod called Product info, containing the name, price, and URL for the
product you are demonstrating.
