Accidentally clicked ‘Start‘ before you were ready? Now, the progress-bar that guides you through the sections and timings of the agenda is off. No problem, you can easily reset the progress bar of your session. Here is what you need to do:
Go to Tools by clicking on the three white bars on the left or the ‘Tools’ button on the right.
Select ‘Advanced‘.
Click ‘Reset progress-bar‘.
Confirm that you want to reset the progress-bar by clicking ‘OK’.
The progress bar helps you to keep your time commitments, by keeping you on track even if you run behind on any particular part of your session.
Ready for take-off? When you and your participants are ready to start the session click the ‘Start‘ button below the agenda. A window will pop up.
Are you starting on time? Press ‘Start Meeting‘. Running a bit behind or ahead of schedule? Make the selection accordingly in the drop-down menu (click the little downward arrow). Then indicate how many minutes early or late you are starting. This way the time indication on the progress bar can help you to finish on time in either case.
Clicking ‘Start Meeting‘ starts your progress bar, which is located between your agenda and your text box, on the right of your Circles Space. When you are on time, you can see a darker-hue blue indicating how much time has passed. Below, there is a numerical indication. In this case 2 minutes of the 27 minutes agenda have passed.
If you are behind schedule, the progress bar turns red (see below). Dark blue indicates your current run-time and lighter blue shows the section of the agenda you are in.
Use the arrows below the progress bar to navigate between the sections of your agenda.
Have you noticed that the timing you had planned for some or all of your sections wasn’t quite right? To learn how to adjust the times of each section during a session, read on here.
