Guidelines for using the Overlay Layouts
The Overlay Layouts are supported:
In CP Conferencing Mode only.
With ITP, non-ITP and CTS endpoints used only as standard endpoints.
With both new and classic Skins in Collaboration Server CP mode.
Overlay Layouts are not supported in ITP conferences as they are not supported by the MLA
application.
The Overlay Layouts are 20% of the height of the endpoint display and are supported on endpoints
of both 16:9 and 4:3 aspect ratios.
Overlay Layouts are recommended for use with high resolution endpoints.
Overlay Layouts are not selected as defaults by the system and are not included in the Auto Layout
settings.
Message Overlay is not affected by the use of Overlay Layouts and is displayed on top of the video
layouts.
Site Names are displayed for all cells. Because the smaller cells are located at the bottom of the large
cell, when enabling Site Names it is advisable not to locate the Site Name at the bottom of the cells.
Standalone Endpoint Cells are displayed each with a border. For all Overlay Layouts, border color is
dependent on the selected Skin.
System behavior for Video Forcing and Personal Layout Control when using the Overlay Layouts
during an ongoing conference is the same as for other video layouts.
Overlay Layouts are only available for selection for the Conference Layout and are not available for
selection for Personal Layout.
During an ongoing conference you cannot select the Overlay Layouts via PCM or Click&View.
PCM menus can be used when the Overlay Layouts are active, and they are displayed as the top
layer.
These Overlay Layouts will only be available in ITP (Telepresence) conferences when support for
Overlay Layouts is included in the Polycom® Multipoint Layout (MLA) application.
