The Chat Console allows you to send and receive instant messages to and from other users. It functions in the manner of a 'chat room' where all members of a team will send and receive messages to and from all other members of their team.
Note: The Chat Console will only display messages sent or received during your current chat session.
The Chat Console consists of three panes:
The top pane will contain messages you receive, and messages you have sent.
The middle pane will contain information regarding chat users.
The bottom pane is where you enter your messages.
The size of each pane can be changed by placing your cursor on the bar between the panes and dragging it to the size you want when the cursor changes to a double-headed arrow.
