Abstract: A method for arranging a layout for a videoconference includes defining a first size, a first location, and a z-axis position of a first video pane in the layout for the videoconference, adding a first graphic object to the layout at a second z-axis position, adding a first text object to the layout at a third z-axis position, merging the first graphic object and the first text object into a merged graphic object having a fourth z-axis position, and sending information representative of the first size, the first location, and the z-axis position of the first video pane, and the merged graphic object and the fourth z-axis position of the merged graphic object to a playback service. Thus, e.g., the playback service need not have access to the fonts used for the text object and need only render a limited number of overall graphic objects.
