Auto Layout
In conferences where the Video Layout is set to “Auto Layout" the system 
automatically selects the conference layout based on the number of 
participants connected to the conference. With Auto Layout, when a new 
video participant is connected/disconnected, the conference layout 
automatically changes format to reflect the new number of video participants. 
Audio Only participants do not affect the selected layout.
Auto Layout must be enabled for the MCU running the conference in the 
MGC Manager. For more details, see the MGC Manager Administrator’s 
Guide, Chapter 5 “Edit system.cfg”.
The layout that will be automatically selected by the system according to the 
Continuous Presence mode and the number of participants is described in 
Table 10-9 on page 10-40.
