In Scoot's Presentation Mode, Gallery Sorting organizes participants into tabs based on Smart Badging data (like department or interest), allowing hosts to easily find and engage specific groups by selecting sorting criteria.
Dynamic Organization with Smart Badging
Gallery Sorting uses Smart Badging data to categorize participants into tabs based on key information, such as their department, job function, or interests. This dynamic organization means that you can now view the gallery sorted into meaningful groups that are relevant to your event, making it easier to find and engage with specific attendee groups.
How to select new Gallery Views:
- Select Presentation Mode: Enter Presentation Mode in your Scoot event.
- Access Gallery Sorting: Look for the Gallery Sorting option within your gallery view settings.
- Choose Your Criteria: Select the criteria you want to use for sorting, such as "Department" or "Interest Area."
Creating Custom Tabs:
- Open Gallery Sorting Settings: In the gallery view, navigate to the sorting settings.
- Select 'Add Custom Tab': Choose the option to create a new tab based on your preferred criteria.
- Name Your Tab: Give your custom tab a name that reflects the group you're organizing (e.g., "Marketing Team").
Managing Favorites and Custom Tabs:
- Mark Favorites: Use the star icon next to participants' names to add them to your Favorites tab.
- Add/Delete Tabs: Customize your gallery view by adding new tabs or deleting existing ones to match your networking strategy.
Some Common Uses for Galley Sorting include:
- Easily Find and Engage Specific Groups: Instead of scrolling through potentially hundreds of participants in one large grid, sorting creates tabs based on relevant criteria (like department, role, interest, or custom tags from Smart Badging). This allows presenters to quickly locate and interact with specific segments of the audience (e.g., "Marketing Team," "New Hires," "VIPs").
- Improve Navigation and Efficiency: In large meetings, finding individuals or specific groups within a single gallery view is time-consuming. Tabs make navigating the audience much faster.
- Target Communication: Presenters can address questions or comments more effectively to relevant groups ("What feedback does the Engineering team have?").
- Understand Audience Makeup: Sorting provides a quick visual overview of the composition of the audience based on the chosen criteria.
- Manage Key Participants: The "Favorites" tab allows presenters to easily keep track of and locate specific important individuals.
