Sharing a window means everyone in the meeting will see that window and that window only, no matter how many other windows you have open on your screen. Your next option is to share just a window, not your whole screen. And the meeting itself is going to be smooshed and may show fewer people, but it’s the best I can offer you.
The content you’re sharing is going to be small for the participants, so try to zoom in on text or images as much as possible. Now, this whole sharing the screen space option isn’t going to be perfect. Now when you launch your slideshow, it’s in a moveable, resizable window. Under Show Type choose Browsed By an Individual. In your PowerPoint file, click the Slideshow tab > Set up Slide Show. I have a whole separate article on a bunch of slick ways to present PowerPoint in Teams meetings. But you can also set the slideshow to display in its own slideshow window. Now, you can do that and use Alt+Tab to jump between the apps. Normally when you start a PowerPoint presentation, it completely takes over your screen. One monkey wrench in this situation is PowerPoint. Very easy.Īnd a quick tip: for some added space, hide the Windows taskbar or macOS dock so you actually have the whole screen at your disposal. You can use the snap feature in Windows or split view in macOS.įor a bit more of a participant-friendly experience, you can keep what you’re sharing up front and jump back and forth between Teams when you need to by pressing Alt+Tab on Windows and ⌘-Tab on macOS. If you’re sharing a file or web page, try to split the apps so there’s enough space to show your meeting participants what they need to see. You’ll still be able to see the meeting participants and the chat. Share the screen and when Teams minimizes, just bring it back up. If you use one screen and you absolutely need to share the whole screen, go for it.
Third, you can join the meeting a second time on another device to follow along there.įourth, you can invest in a second monitor and use one monitor to follow the meeting and the other share content. We’ll talk more about how that works in a bit. In this situation, you can jump between Teams and the window.
Second, you can always choose to share a window. But there are smart ways to keep your screen organized and clean. First, you can do what I just said Microsoft tries to keep you from doing: keep the meeting on your screen.
