Annotation Toolbar
The annotation toolbar enables you to create and annotate content in real-time on the Polycom Pano
system. You can use the annotation toolbar to annotate content using your finger or a stylus. For more
information, see Annotation Toolbar.
Content Tray
The Polycom Pano Home screen shows a maximum of four content sources at one time. When the
maximum number of sessions are displayed and another source is added, the incoming source is added to
the top-left of the content view area. The system moves one of the original sources to the content tray,
the storage area for inactive content sources.
Keep the following in mind about the content tray:
● Content items are shown newest to oldest.
● The content tray expands to show up to three lines of sources. If there are more sources available,
scroll vertically to see those items.
Removing an Item from the Content Tray
You can move an item from the content tray to the content viewing area.
Procedure
1 Tap to open the content tray.
2 Tap the content item you want to move from the content tray to the content viewing area.
