Mikogo Tip: Access the Feature Menu in Version 4
For those of you who have only used Mikogo Version 4, you may be very used to accessing all Mikogo features from the software panel that floats on your desktop. However those who remember previous versions of Mikogo (e.g. Version 3) will know that features could be accessed by clicking on the
icon in the taskbar’s system tray. If you are new to Mikogo or a long-time user, either way you will be interested to learn that the “old school” feature menu can still be accessed in Version 4 as shown in the image to the right. Read on below for more details.

Mikogo Tip: Recording a Session in Version 4
Recording your online presentations or remote support sessions can be a great way to keep a record of your online session for future use. A recorded remote support session could be used as a tutorial video when others encounter similar problems in the future. On the other hand, if someone is unable to attend your online presentation however you recorded the session, they can then later play the recording back and view the presentation.
The Version 4 software includes a recording feature for your desktop sharing sessions. This is a completely new addition for the Mikogo Mac software, while it has been revamped for the Windows feature range. Read below for how to use the Mikogo recording feature.

Mikogo Tip: All Participants Can Draw on the Presenter’s Screen – Multi-User Whiteboard
In Version 4.0 we have improved the whiteboard feature by adding greater functionality, new whiteboard tools and it is now available for both Windows and Mac users. To get straight into one of the main changes in the functionality of the new whiteboard, in the previous version of Mikogo only the presenter could control the whiteboard toolbar. Now in Version 4.0 the participants can use the whiteboard on the presenter’s screen without the presenter having to give remote keyboard and mouse control to the participants. This is the reason why we call this feature the multi-user whiteboard. Read below for how to access this function along with other changes in the new whiteboard.
