The People view. You are at the top. Everyone else is listed under “Participants · reading language”.

What you see​

ScribX adds people to the list by itself when they join the call. You don't add anyone by hand.

  • Your own row is at the top, marked (You).
  • Host marks the host of the call.
  • Owner marks the person who started ScribX in this meeting. That person controls the recording.
  • A person who is speaking now has a ring around their picture.
info

These labels only describe this call. For who can open a recording in ScribX, see teams & roles.

Set a reading language​

Each row has a language button on the right, for example EN or JA.

  1. Click the language button next to the person.
  2. Pick a language from the list. The list shows the languages chosen for this meeting.

ScribX saves the choice for that person in this meeting. Everyone who has the side panel open sees the change. Under your own name, the label says Language you read.

tip

To change the languages of the whole meeting, see languages. The list here only offers the meeting's languages.

Rename a speaker​

If a name looks wrong, you can change it in your side panel.

  1. Move the mouse over the person's row. A pencil icon appears next to the name.
  2. Click the pencil and type the new name.
  3. Press Enter to save, or Esc to cancel.

The new name appears in your side panel and your live transcript.

note

A rename is only for you, and only until you reload the page. It does not change the name in the saved note or for other people. To fix a name in the saved note, open the note. Under Participants on the right side, click the name, type the new name and press Enter.
