HiThereseSolimeno ,
The link you provided to swinderjuneja is regarding Banner notifications NOT appearing when a user is in full screen mode, that is not what the user was having an issue with, as I read it in her post.
I believe and would agree - it is the location of the notifications on MAC OS. The Teams notifications appear BEHIND the Mac notifications and cannot be moved. They also appear over items when working (meaning THEY DO APPEAR, and keep appearing without the ability to turn them off, when on full screen). Also a secondary issue, although not mentioned in swinderjuneja's post, occurs when someone calls or video's a MAC user, because of the screen location of top righthand side that is programmed into the teams application, the notification for the audio/video call cannot be read or answered because it is BEHIND the MAC notifications.
Working on it,
Dr. Shelby
It's already been announced in Message Center that Mac users will be able to select native notifications within Teams, rollout by mid January. Then there won't be overlaps, Teams will just fit into the native mac experience.
To the original question, top right is how Apple chose to implement notifications, I don't believe there's a way to change it yet in MacOS.
- You say announced.
Nothing has happened. Aside from them editing the date to the previous month at the start of every month.
The original question is *because* MS have implemented the dumbest notification system I've *ever* seen on Teams... for some reason?
And bumping in case anyone who works for Microsoft ever reads this forum.
