Tutorials MarkupCraft help Walkthroughs

Follow another reviewer in a Live session

In a Live session, follow a person's view so yours moves with theirs, and let the host ask everyone to follow.

Written for MarkupCraft 0.9. The same help is inside the app: press F1.

In a Live session you can make your view follow a colleague's, for example a teacher walking a class through a sheet. This page is about following; starting and joining the session is done in CadCraft Studio, see Review one plan set together with Live TeamWork.

What you'll do

Follow one person, stop following, and (as host) ask everyone to follow you.

Steps

  1. In a Live session, open the list of people. It shows each person's colour and name.
  2. Choose Follow beside the name of the person to follow. The status line reads Following and their name, and your view moves with theirs.
  3. To stop, choose Stop following, or just pan or zoom your own view: following stops by itself.
  4. As host, choose Ask everyone to follow me to ask the whole group to follow you. Choose Stop asking everyone to follow me to end it.

Good to know

  • Each person shows the sheet they are on and when their last edit was, so a teacher can see who has made progress.
  • If the person you follow is on a view that cannot be followed, or on another sheet, the status line says where they are instead.
  • Following changes only your view. Nothing is saved in the file.
  • The class view has not yet been tried with a real teacher and students.
