How do I control multi-user sessions in doozzoo?

Modified on Tue, 17 Dec at 2:32 PM

Layout selection


To change the layout, click the "Toggle View" icon in the bottom-right corner of the session. This will open the "Change View" menu.


In this following menu, you can select your desired view. Depending on the layout, different numbers of video windows will be displayed in large size, with the remaining videos (if available) appearing in small size in the lower-right corner.

Note: The "Duo" layout is only available when at least two video windows are visible, and the "Quartet" layout is only available when at least four video windows are shown.

  • Solo: One large video window, all others small
  • Duo: Two large video windows, all others small
  • Quartet: Four large video windows, all others small
  • Ensemble: All video windows the same size




Moderator function: Apply to all (Workshop rooms only)


When you open a workshop room as a coach, you will see the "Apply to All" option in the "Toggle View" menu. If activated, all changes to your own view will be applied to all other participants, including the arrangement and order of the video windows. This allows you to control exactly what your students see.

To change the view only for yourself without affecting others, simply uncheck "Apply to All".



Selecting videos for the large view


To bring a participant’s video into the large view, click directly in the middle of the desired video window.


The selected video window will now appear in the large view, and one of the smaller videos will be replaced to make space.


Video windows selected this way will display a small pin icon in the top-left corner.




Controlling audio for specific participants


Clicking on the arrow next to the name of a participant (1) opens a small menu in which you can mute the participant for yourself (2) and also adjust the volume. Note: This action only affects your audio settings, and other participants will still hear the participant’s audio.




Once muted, an icon will appear next to their name to indicate that they are muted.



If a participant has muted his own microphone in the usual way in the blue menu bar, the following icon will appear at this point instead:




How do I control the audio for all participants?

If they are already muted—either by you or because they muted themselves—the microphone icon will be grayed out.


To mute all participants at once, click the "Mute All" button at the top of the participant list. Only you, as the coach, will remain unmuted.

Note: Each participant must unmute themselves when they wish to speak.



Controlling app access for all participants?


As the coach, you can enable or disable apps for each participant. Note: The first participant always has app access enabled.


The "Manage App Access" button will be blue when the apps are enabled for the participant.
