Availability of transfer functions
Transfer feature has two functionalities: Transfer slides, and Transfer annotations. Transfer slides will transfer selected slides to a selected UK (Cambridge) or a US server, while Transfer annotations will transfer all annotations within a project to a selected UK (Cambridge) or a US server.
