World Stream features a specialized toolbar designed to help users address common streaming issues. This toolbar is located at the top of the browser window, and can be collapsed or expanded by hovering your cursor over it and clicking the arrow that appears.
On this page, we'll review the available functions and how to use them.
AWS runs Breakroom on a remote machine with its own clipboard, so copying and pasting text is a slightly more complex process. The World Stream toolbar gives you the ability to copy and paste text between the Breakroom stream and your own computer.
To copy text from a World Stream session to your local computer, follow these steps.
Highlight the text you want to copy within your Breakroom World Stream Session, and press Ctrl + C on your keyboard.
Click the Clipboard button in the World Stream toolbar. A pop-up window will appear containing your highlighted text.
Highlight the text again, and press Ctrl + C a second time to copy the text to your local computer clipboard. You can then paste it wherever you like.
