Left pane
No matter where you are in the app, you’ll find a left pane that allows you to navigate through the main parts of a particular menu option. However, the contents of this pane will differ depending on which menu option you’re using.
For example, in Message, this left pane contains a list of all direct messages, groups, and teams you have open.
Quick creation
An essential feature of the left pane is the quick creation plus button. Clicking this button will create an item associated with that section.
For example, if you’re in the Video menu, you can start a new meeting by hovering your mouse over the Meetings section name in the left pane and selecting the Start a video meeting plus button that appears at the far right.
Center pane
Finally, each page in the app has a center pane, where you will spend most of your time interacting within the app. The center pane will differ depending on where you are within the app.
For example, in Message, the center pane is your message thread containing the history of a particular conversation. In Video, if you’re on the Meetings page, this page will contain a list of scheduled meetings for the day as well as action buttons to start, schedule, or join a meeting.
