WebEx Training Center Release Notes and FAQs
Q: What's the difference between sharing documents and applications?
A: With document sharing, attendees can see the document, but you can't change it. With application
sharing, you share the application that you used to create or change the document; as you change the
document, your attendees see your changes. Application sharing uses more bandwidth and therefore can
affect the overall performance of your session.
You can share virtually any type of document or
application, but those that stream video or audio may not
display appropriately. To share streaming content, use
WebEx "Web content sharing" which displays the content
in a Web browser on each attendee's computer. All you
have to do is select Web Content from the Share menu,
enter the URL of a Web site that contains the streaming
content, and your attendees can see it in their own
browsers. You can share many documents or
presentations at the same time; each document or
presentation appears on its own tab in the content viewer.
Q: What types of files or applications can I share?
A: You can share virtually any document or application. For best results, if the application you want to
share streams audio or video and is available on the web, you should:
•
Display the page in your browser
•
Use the Web content sharing feature (which opens a browser window on each attendee's
computer)
Q: Does everyone in my training session need the file or application that I want to share?
A: No. Only you need the file or application on your computer.
Tip: If some of your attendees have slow network connections, you might ask them to cache the course
material prior to the session. For detailed information see the Training Center Host's guide on the Support
page of your Training Center service site.
