New in Blackboard Collaborate: Pin (or anchor) video

You can now pin videos in Blackboard Collaborate so that they are always in view, allowing you to choose who you want to focus on in a session.

When you pin a video, it moves the video to the top of the list and pins (or anchors) it there. It does not change the number of videos you see, just the order you see them in.

Use the zoom controls if you want to narrow your focus even more.

You can pin more than one video. Pinned videos appear in the order they were pinned. The first video you pin will always be the first video you see. Active speaker videos follow pinned videos.

Only you know who you pinned. Videos are only pinned in your view. Nobody else sees who you pinned and the people you pin are not notified.

Pinned videos stay pinned until you unpin them or leave the session. Pinned videos are pinned even when you go into breakout groups.

Use the Attendee controls in the Attendees list or in the lower right corner of a video to pin and unpin videos.
