at the meeting or in the meeting

[Unregistered]

HI native speakers,

I don't know when to use 'in the meeting' and 'at the meeting'.
For example,
1. The matters have been discussed at the meeting or in the meeting?
2. In the last meeting, I had a lot of arguments with Mary.
3. In the meeting, I had a lot of arguments with Mary.

many thanks

If you visualize the meeting as if it was a box, then events within the box = during the meeting >> are "in" the meeting.
