Spotlight and Pinning Speakers in Meeting Rooms

In meeting rooms, both within an event’s agenda, or as a stand-alone meeting event, you can spotlight or pin your speakers so they are featured in the attendees’ view, and in the recording.

The default view when people join the meeting is "Gallery view" - where all attendees, speakers, and panelists are shown on the screen in a grid. 

Hosts

Hosts can change the display for all attendees and for the recording:

Spotlight

As the host, you can spotlight speakers to feature them in the display to end users.

1
Hover over the participant that you’d like to spotlight
2
Select the three-dot icon in the upper right-hand corner and select Spotlight
3
To undo the spotlight, follow the steps above and select Remove Spotlight

Recording

As the host who is recording, the view that you configure is what will show in the recording so the best practice is to spotlight whomever you want to be featured in the recording!

Event Attendees

Individual participants can change their local display in a few ways:

Change the view

Select the View button in the upper right-hand side of the video screen to switch from gallery to speaker view. 

• Selecting Speaker view will feature the person actively speaking (if no one is spotlit), or the spotlit speaker(s). All other attendees will populate across the top of the screen

• Selecting Gallery view will populate all attendees on the screen in a grid. 

Pin attendees

Select the three-dot icon within an attendee’s profile card and select Pin. This will pin that participant as the first in the display for the user.
