The group chat sidebar (**area 4 from the above diagram**) is the area where every viewer in the room can participate in a text chat.

* On the bottom of the window is the text entry box. In that box, on the left side there is a paperclip icon, when selecting this icon a viewer is able to select a file to upload to the group chat that will allow every other viewer in the room to download.
* To enter text, click in the text entry area that is labeled **Send a message here** and begin typing. Once you are ready to send, either press the **enter** or **return** key on the keyboard, or click the purple send icon on the far right of the pane.
* There is also an emoji selector button in the right side of the text entry box that allows the viewer to easily insert emojis into the text chat.

On the top of the group chat window, next to the words **GROUP CHAT** there are two buttons:

* The left button is a trash can, this clears the chat for every viewer in the room.
* The down arrow is the chat download button. Clicking this button downloads a chat transcript to your computer.
* Above that window, to the left of the PacPost Live icon is an **X** button, this closes the chat from the view, clicking that button again opens the chat back up, resuming where you left off.
