Session Display 

Sessions will be displayed in chronological order in the Audience Web App and Projector Panel. When two sessions have identical start and end times, the session added first will be displayed first. You can also choose to order the sessions manually. Our recommendation is to set up sessions in the order defined in your event agenda.
