Displaying or Hiding Interface Elements

While you are using Distance Learning to attend a session, you can display or hide several interface elements. You may want to change which of these elements you see depending on the activities that take place at different times during the session.

The following paragraphs describe the functions of several interface elements that can be viewed or hidden, and provide guidelines for deciding which ones to view at any given time.

NOTE:  When attending a custom session, you may not be able to access some of the options. Presenters determine which options are available to attendees during a custom session.

Toolbar. Provides quick access to many Distance Learning commands, both for attendees and instructors. The toolbar is most useful to attendees as a quick way to choose the Raise Hand command, open a chat dialog box, or save a copy of the current screen display. See Using the Siebel Distance Learning Toolbar to Attend a Session for more information about the toolbar.

Audio Control dialog box. Allows audio transmission through the built-in Voice Over IP feature in Distance Learning. See Using Audio During a Distance Learning Session for more information about the Audio Control toolbar.

Chat dialog box. Provides a way to exchange text messages during a session. It is useful as a way to display a text chat exchange to session participants, ask questions, or exchange information on a one-to-one basis without disturbing other session participants.
