How to find a teammate's position on the Space using Live Cursors in Vani?

Live Cursor

Live Cursors in Vani help you work together better with your Spacemates by denoting their presence and position. You can see what your Spacemates are working on, navigate along with them and co-create with them on the same Space.




Follow Spacemates' cursors
Say your Spacemate is explaining something on the Space, and you have to move along with them. You don't have to follow their cursor manually. Go to the Spacemates pane, click the Navigate with Spacemate option that appears when you hover over the Spacemate's name. Your screen will start moving along with that Spacemates' cursor.



If you are in a Catchup, you can find the Navigate with Spacemate option when you hover over their video tile.
