The Meeting Menu has Changed in V.7

One of the biggest changes in the new version of Adobe Connect (7) is the Meeting Menu. Although the options haven't changed significantly, the way they are displayed has.
Meeting Menu, V.6.2
In V.6.2, most of the choices were listed directly in the menu with just a few fly-out sub-lists.
Meeting Menu, V.7
Meeting Menu, V.7 with Fly-out menu
In V.7, the choices are divided into categories and listed as fly-out menus under each heading with nested fly-outs for sub-choices. There are new choices under the "Manage Access and Entry," and "Manage My Settings" categories -- BTW, the "Full Screen" option refers to the application window, not the Share pod.
Also new to this version as well as to the Meeting menu is the option to create breakout rooms.
One More Thing
One more thing I forgot to mention is that, with the new Meeting Manager Web Interface (called Connect Central in V.7), the only way for room Hosts who are not also the room owners to access the Web interface for the meeting room (to locate recordings, for example) is to enter the meeting room and select "Manage Meeting Information" from the Meeting menu. Non-room owners can no longer access a list of meetings in which they have been assigned Host permissions through the Web interface (at Penn State, this would be http://breeze.psu.edu).
