Foil 46 You Choose what to share in Tango

From Tango 1.4 Done with Pictures CEWES(ERDC) Tango Traing -- Sept 16-17 1999. by Geoffrey C. Fox


These whiteboards illustrate your freedom in defining shared events in Tango
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)
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
This illustrates power of shared event model as one can choose which events to share and change this at any time
It is all "just software"!
