MS Teams stealing the focus when presenter switches into/out-of screen sharing...
- Jun 07, 2021Hi all, thanks for reporting this issue. I'm from the Teams Engineering team, and we're aware of this. We have a fix ready that will be coming out in a release very soon.
Report a Problem is the best place to report an issue like this, or on this forum. We have a team reviewing all of the feedback and are very grateful for the time spent reporting it. UserVoice is another good option, but as mentioned sometimes takes time to pass our radar with the votes. Thank you!
Hello Rich_Larson, jonaslomholdt
Have you reported this bug on the Uservoice feedback forum? That's where Teams engineers review bugs, feature requests and the number of people who vote for an item is given a lot of weight when prioritizing the workload. Thank you
- Rich_LarsonMay 24, 2021Brass ContributorHi Therese!
I have reported it via the in-app "Report a Problem" link, and also here. Your post is the first time I have seen a link to a third location (Uservoice feedback forum) where bugs should be reported. I wish Microsoft would settle in on a consistent place for this type of thing. I will report it there.
PS: Thank you for the new info! I sincerely appreciate you reaching out on this, and I don't want to sound ungrateful, because I am extremely thankful for anyone like you that is trying to help!

Hi Rich_Larson Really, we're not trying to add to your workload Each reporting vehicle serves a slightly different purpose:
When you report a problem, certainly it goes straight to the Teams engineers. But when you open a ticket on Uservoice, other users with the same issue (or same feature request) can vote on it, adding comments, and that helps the engineering team establish priorities when needed (they can't work on everything all at once!) Also, people who vote in UV will get an update whenever the status of that item changes, including the originator.
- Rich_LarsonMay 24, 2021Brass ContributorThat makes good sense Therese. I think the problem stems from the fact that Uservoice doesn't present itself as "the place to go" and it took you mentioning it here for me to even find it. After you mentioned it I started looking around, and I see what may be the problem: UV is linked to from the app's "Suggest a Feature" option, but there is no mention of it in the "Report a Problem" dialog, so those that are only reporting problems will have no idea that UV exists.
I guess maybe I need to "Suggest a Feature" to have a UV link included in the "Report a Problem" pop-up dialog box. 😉
Thanks again for your outreach! It's very much appreciated.
Rich
