Adding a Screen Sharing Block to the Storyboard


To add a Screen Sharing Content Block to your Storyboard, click the "+" Card in the Storyboard, select the Screen Sharing item, then click Next.


Assigning a Presenter to Screen Share

From here, you will select the Presenter who will be sharing their screen with the audience:


In order to show in this list, the Presenter user must have been given Screen Sharing rights during Event Setup. If they do not show here, return to the Webinar Event Card and check your settings.
Only one Presenter may use a Screen Sharing block at one time. To set up multiple Screen Sharing sections, add separate Screen Sharing blocks for each Presenter.

Additional Options

When complete, click the Add to Storyboard button to return to the main Storyboard screen:
