| More Information |
|---|
In Microsoft Teams, we are delivering new enhancements to the presenter window that is shown while screensharing. The presenter window now shows up to four meeting participants (both video and audio), active speakers, raised hands and reactions, and a preview of shared content. Meeting notifications are surfaced to the central area of the screen for easier awareness and consistent windowing behavior. These enhancements improve awareness and visibility of what's going on in your meeting and make it easier to engage with other attendees while screensharing. When this will happen:Preview: We will begin rolling out mid-May 2024 and expect to complete by late May 2024. General Availability (Worldwide, GCC, GCC High, and DoD): We will begin rolling out early August 2024 (previously mid-July) and expect to complete by late December (previously late November). How this will affect your organization:When sharing the Microsoft Teams screen or content, the presenter will now be able to better keep track of the participants' activity during a meeting by using an extended presenter window. Presenter GalleryWhat you need to do to prepare:No action is needed to prepare for this change. You may want to notify your users about this change and update any relevant documentation as appropriate. |
