In this mode, the conversation and Buzz menu panes are both open by default. You can also open the details pane by clicking buzz_details_icon_new.png in the conversation pane. You can also enlarge the Buzz panel view by dragging the left edge of the panel as wide as you want. The main interface components of Buzz are the same in the web and desktop versions. The only difference is that the desktop version includes additional options in a toolbar. For more information, see [Desktop version toolbar options](/docs/s/article/360043429973). **Video - Buzz Overview** ## Buzz Menu, Status, and Universal Compose In the black bar at the top of Buzz, you can access the **Buzz** menu, which includes a number of general-purpose settings options, as well as the Universal Compose icon. This bar is available in every pane in Buzz, so you can take advantage of these options no matter where you are. Buzz_Menu.png #### Buzz Menu In the Buzz menu, you have access to the following options: * **Update your status.** Set your status to Available, Busy, Away, or Out of office. You can also add a custom message to your status when you are unavailable. * **Toggle Fullscreen**. Toggles full-screen mode for Buzz. In this view, all three panels are displayed at once across the screen. You can also toggle full-screen mode by entering Ctrl + Alt + x on your keyboard. * **Mark All as Read.** This lets you mark all messages as read, thereby removing all notifications for unread messages. * **Manage Settings**. Opens your [Notification Settings](/docs/s/article/360042925814). * **Show Keyboard Shortcuts**. Opens a list of keyboard shortcuts for use in Buzz. * **Email to Buzz**. Lets you convert an email message into a Buzz conversation. For more information, see [Importing an Email Thread into Buzz](/docs/s/article/360042925754). * **Download the Buzz App**. Lets you download the desktop version of Buzz to your computer. For more information, see [Downloading and Running the Buzz Desktop Version](/docs/s/article/360043430293). #### Status Update your status on web or mobile to **Available**, **Busy**, **Away**, or **Out of the office**. When someone sends you a 1:1 message or @mentions you in a conversation and your status is set to something other than Available, they will see a warning message that states you are unavailable. You can add custom messaging to your status message when you are unavailable as well as assign a delegate when you are **Out of office**. An icon on your avatar indicates your current status. When your status is set to **Available**, a colored dot will show on your avatar, Green indicates you are Available and have been interacting with Domo. Yellow indicates that you Available, but have not been active within Domo recently. Gray means you are logged out of Domo. These colors are automatically updated by the system based on your activity inside of Domo. Buzz_Status.png Buzz_Mobile.png #### Universal Compose Universal Compose lets you compose a Buzz message from anywhere in Buzz without first having to locate and open a conversation. You can start a conversation from scratch by searching for the people or groups you want to message. Or, you can add a message onto an existing conversation by searching for the conversation. This dialog opens when you click the buzz_universal_compose_icon.png icon that appears over any pane in Buzz OR when you click Screenshot icon in the **Conversations** area in the navigation pane. Here you can initiate a public or private conversation with select individuals or groups or open an existing conversation you are already included in and contribute to it.

The following screenshot points out the main components of this pane: buzz_details_pane_2018.png You can learn more about these components in the following table: | Component | Description | | ----------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | Details section | Shows basic information about this conversation, including the title, description, and start date. The options that appear here differ depending on whether you are in the details view for a main conversation or a thread as well as the privacy status. For example, the **Make Public** option is only available for private threads. You can change the title of a people-centered conversation (which takes as its title the names of its primary participants) by clicking and editing. You *cannot* change the name of a data-centered conversation (i.e. a conversation around a card, page, or project) here. The only way to change the name of a data-centered conversation is to change the name of its element. For example, to change the name of a page conversation, you would need to change the name of the page. | | Shareable URL link | Generates a URL you can then copy and send to other users. Those users can then follow this URL to open this conversation in Buzz. | | Add as Favorite/Unfavorite link | Lets you add this conversation to or remove it from your **Favorites** list in the navigation pane. | | Follow/Unfollow link | Lets you follow or unfollow this conversation. If you follow a conversation, it is considered active and appears in your **Conversations** menu in the navigation pane If you unfollow a conversation, it is removed from your **Conversations** menu. However, you can return to it by searching for it in the navigation pane. | | Import Email option (not shown) | Lets you import an existing email thread into this Buzz conversation. For more information, see [Importing an Email Thread into Buzz](/docs/s/article/360042925754). | | Make Public option (private threads only) | Makes a thread visible to all members of the channel. Be aware that once you make a thread public, you cannot change it back to private. | | Delete (private threads only) | Deletes this thread from the conversation. | | Notification Settings | Lets you configure Notification Settings for this conversation. You can configure whether notifications are sent via email Screenshot , Domo Mobile Screenshot , SMS Screenshot , or push notifications on your computer Screenshot . For each of these, you can indicate whether notifications are sent when you are @ mentioned in the conversation, when any activity occurs in the conversation, or not at all. All of these settings inherit from the global Notification Settings for your Domo. For more information, see [Configuring Notification and Alert Settings](/docs/s/article/360042925814). | | Attachments section | Lists all files that have been attached to this conversation. Click a file to open a preview of it as well as download it to your computer. | | Bots section | Lets you add "Bots"—integrations with various third-party connectors—to your Buzz.

A yellow circle next to a person's picture indicates that person is currently online.
