Slido changes coming this semester: 

1. Powerpoint Add-In:
  1. Slido slides have a new look on dark PowerPoint themes.
  2. Your interaction previews update to show your latest changes.
  3. Want a poll to keep collecting responses after your slideshow ends? You can now choose that slide by slide and a small notification will let you know it's still open.
2. Hosts, meeting cohosts and webinar panelists can now answer polls and ask questions in Slido without leaving the Webex sidebar.** **You can also see Slido from a participant’s perspective while staying in the meeting.
  When a poll is live, select the thumbs-up icon to open Participant mode, respond, then switch back to Host mode. In Q&A, use the Ask button to submit a question and return to the host view.
  Hosts can now undo AI categorization and return to the original list of submissions. Choose Uncategorize in Host or Present mode. On smaller screens, including mobile and Microsoft Teams, you’ll find it under the Categorize dropdown.
  If you want to keep the categories for later, switch to List view instead. You can return to the grouped view whenever you need it.
