Your teammate can now access the Pin menu and click Start to go directly to the Frame.
In Vani, the URL of the Space also changes based on your current location on the canvas. When you send someone a link, the Space will open exactly where you want them to be.
What's the best way to follow my teammate while they present?
A: In Vani, you can spot your teammates' Live Cursor on a Space while they're on it. This will show you their current position on the Space. However, to easily follow your teammate while they present, you can directly navigate with them on a Space in Vani.
With the Navigate option, you can automatically move around with your teammates as they move through the Space. To navigate with your teammates, click All Spacemates in the bottom-right corner. Next to the person's name, there is a Navigate With option. Click this, then you can sit back, relax, and let your teammate navigate for you!
Another way to follow your teammates' cursor is by hovering on your teammate's video tile during a Catchup and clicking the Navigate with option.

What are Personality Cursors?

Once you’ve made your choice, we’ll remember your preference and carry it over to any other Space you are working on. Of course, you can always change your preference again at any time.
