Tips for Using Screen Sharing to Work Together

Follow these guidelines to increase your group's productivity when you use screen sharing:

• Read "Ensuring Security."
• Read "How to Share Your Screen" for information about the best method for sharing your screen: Share a Program, Share My Entire Screen, or Share Part of My Screen with a Frame.
• To control your screen, participants must have permission to edit/share. Ensure that participants have permission to edit/share by moving your mouse pointer over their names in the Participant List and reading the tooltip. If a participant does not have permission to edit/share, the Moderator must grant permission to the participant.
• After you begin sharing, use the Tools menu commands or the screen-sharing toolbar to let others take control or to remove control from other participants.
• Save the shared file frequently.
• Be sure to save the final version of the file that was edited during the meeting.
