Foil 56 You Choose what to share in Tango

From User View of Tango Features with tutorial NPAC Tutorial on Tango/WebWisdomNT -- October 26 98. by Geoffrey C. Fox


1 These whiteboards illustrate your freedom in defining shared events in Tango
2 For each of the three examples just discussed (basic whiteboards and mapper), all users in the session can freely modify the whiteboard
  • For the mapper for instance anybody can add icons (and everybody sees them) and anybody can change the viewpoint (controlled by graph on top left)
3 We could have made a different choice, with for instance only the master able to set the viewpoint.
  • Each event can be treated differently -- all could set icons with master only setting viewpoint and text
  • these choices can also be dynamically changed
4 This illustrates power of shared event model as one can choose which events to share and change this at any time
5 It is all "just software"!
