UPCOMING FEATURE RELEASES:


Smarter Gallery View Ordering

  • To ensure we are in line with other major meeting platforms, we will make sure that people who have spoken remain on the first page after they finish speaking

  • Currently on Calbridge the active speaker only appears on the first page while they are speaking but then is demoted back to whatever page they started on. With this update, when an active speaker who is not on the first page starts speaking they will be promoted to the first page and even when they stop speaking they will now remain on the first page. 


Active speaker while presenting

  • A new view that will allow participants to only see the presented content and the active speaker's video tile. All other video tiles will be hidden.

  • The new view type will be called Active Speaker and this will be  the default when someone presents content in Q&A and Presentation Modes. Regular speaker view will remain for Conversation Mode meetings.
