Changing the Classroom Layout (for yourself and students)

Under the Settings menu (for students), there is a new set of options for Layout type. A dropdown allows for the selection of one of the following:

• Custom - This default is the same behaviour as the previous version, which lets you drag the webcams to the top/bottom and left/right of the presentation,
• Smart Layout - webcams automatically move to maximize the size of the presentation,
• Focus on presentation - webcams move under the chat, and
• Focus on video - presentation moves under the chat.

For moderators, there is an extra set of option to “push” that layout to all other users in the session (same effect as each user manually choosing the pushed layout from their Settings option).

The moderator has an extra set of options for Layout Type.

• Custom (push layout to all)
• Smart Layout (push layout to all)
• Focus on presentation (push layout to all)
• Focus on video (push layout to all)

For example, selecting Focus on video (push layout to all) would change the layout of all viewers to 'Focus on video' (same effect as if they had selected that option themselves).
