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.
