Make your training sessions and sales presentations in RingCentral Video more impactful and immersive with Presentation Modes.
Presenter overlay mode
The Presenter overlay mode allows you to show your camera while using your presentation as the background. You can use this feature via your web browser (Chrome and Edge) or the RingCentral desktop app. You can also adjust the transparency of your video to make sure you’re not covering up any important information.
Using the Presenter overlay mode
When in a RingCentral Video meeting, click the More button at bottom right.
Select Presentation mode. This opens the Settings window.
Configure the position and size of your video by dragging the blue rectangle on the preview screen.
Configure the transparency of your video.
Close the Settings window.
Click the Share button at the bottom and select a screen to share.
Click Share.
Glassboard mode
Glassboard mode makes it look like you’re behind your presentation by making your video transparent through primarily white or black colors in your presentation.
Glassboard mode works with online white-boarding tools such as Miro or with any presentation of consistent color (either mostly white or mostly dark).

Newsroom mode
The Newsroom mode is designed to give you the most presentation real estate while keeping your video to the side and ensuring it doesn’t overlap with your presentation.

Best practices when using Presentation mode
Practice the position of your video before your presentation and as you transition slides. You can always change the position of your video in your video settings during the meeting.
Be mindful of your hands — when using your hands to explain something, make sure to keep your hands inside the video camera frame.
