I would like to use the presenter only area, however, when I screen share, clients see the entire area (q and a )etal. How do I fix this? Also, When in in the presenter area mode, I only want the client to see the Share pod. If I select full screen, my screen also goes full and if I just share, then once again the client sees my pods also. HELP PLEASE!

    We have just found that with the Host using MSIE 7, that when sharing in Breeze the following occurs
    * If they use "Windows" and select a Window for MSIE 7, the drop down boxes on the webpage viewed appear as a white box with a blue cross hatching through it. This would suggest that Microsoft have changed the way drop down lists are displayed in a browser (ie it jumps out of the context of the "window)

    * If they share as "Application", the drop down lists are OK.

    Hi Jstlb:

    If you would like to prevent this, in the share pod, choose share>my
    computer screen and then select either "windows" or "applications"
    instead of "desktop".

    When you choose "windows", you will see an open list of all available
    windows and you can check as many as you'd like (if you'd like to
    share multiple windows--so when you move to another one, it is also
    visible), just don't select the one for the meeting room. When you
    choose "applications", likewise, you will see a list of open
    applications and their associated windows and can choose which one or
    ones to share.

    An added advantage to this approach is that you will always see which
    windows or applications are being shared because there will be a
    little red tag in the corner telling you that you are sharing.

    This is also a more secure approach if you forget to close your Email
    or IM client because if any other non-selected windows pop up, they
    will appear with hash marks and be unlegible to the participants.

    Hope this helps!
