You can join a conference as a guest after
having received a call from the Host
inviting you to the conference. |
|
You must have a DMU Navigator session
running.
You must have properly initialized the conferencing infrastructure. See:
|

Each participant of the conference must have access
privileges to all data that he will visualize and he must load the data
manually. Information about which documents are open in the Host session is
provided to all participants on the Document page. The actions
replicated during a conference are the following:
- workbench transition
- object selection
- viewpoint modification (zoom, rotation)
- 3D annotations (creation, modification and deletion)
- 2D annotations (linked to cameras)
creation, modification and deletion
- move products (free hand or simulation context)
- show/hide
- specification tree status (if you expand a node as the host it is
replicated in the guest session)
It is now possible to use the F3 key to toggle the visibility of the
specification tree. the coherence of which is maintained for all member
sessions of the conference.

To join the
conference as a guest, in the menu bar, select the
Tools->Conferencing->Guest.
The
Conferencing dialog box appears.
You must now wait until you receive a call from the Host inviting you to
join the conference.
|
|
If you are using NetMeeting as driver, the
NetMeeting dialog box will also appear.
If the NetMeeting interface is
already on the desktop, you can use it to host a conference by selecting
the Call/Host Meeting menu item,
and then connecting DMU to that conference by selecting
Tools->Conferencing->Host
from the
menu bar in the DMU window.
Likewise, guests already in a NetMeeting conference can connect DMU to that
conference by selecting the
Tools->Conferencing->Guest from the menu bar in the DMU
window. |
|
As much as NetMeeting functionality would
enable you to perform some of the conferencing actions, they will not be
described in this documentation.
Note, however, that even if you manage the conference completely from
the Conferencing dialog box, you must leave the NetMeeting
dialog box opened as it is serving as the conference driver. |
