This section will help point out various features of a Nefsis Conference that you may not have immediately come across.

The Start page

Upon entering a Nefsis conference as a Host or Presenter, you are shown a "start" page. This can be really useful to help you invite other people, turn on microphones, webcams and to start sharing documents and applications.

 

 

 

 

 

Change my display name

In a Nefsis conference, you may want to set your display name to something friendly so that other conference attendees know who you are...

 

 

 

 

 

Join a conference

If you have been invited to join a Nefsis conference, you can join either via email, nefsis.com or by clicking Accept on an invitation balloon (if invited via the Nefsis Contact List).

 

 

 

 

 

Leave a conference

You can easily leave a conference wih just a few clicks, either by selecting the "n" application menu (top-left corner) and clicking Leave Conference or just closing the window like any other application.

 

 

 

 

 

End a conference

If you would like to delete or end a conference once finished, you can do so at the end of the conference session. If any participants are still in the conference, they will be expelled.

 

 

 

 

 

Lock & Unlock a conference

If you would like to lock or unlock a conference, you can do so by clicking on the "n" application menu in the top-left corner.

Once a recording has been made, it can be played back in a number of ways. The easiest is often just to double-click on it.
