only ppt documents are allowed to be screen shared from browse
I tried to screen share documents from the browse in Microsoft team, unfortunately, it allows only PowerPoint documents.

Thank you Henry
When I share documents and I want to see myself on the screen as well. It turns out this is possible only if I open the document from browse, but only ppt can be open, this is true even if I browse one drive or browse teams and channels (here there is a restriction too, only the folder general is accessed, not assignment class materials etc.

Hi,
Just had a thought, with the new meeting experience where it pops out in another window. If you had multiple screens, you could share your desktop with the doc you wanted to share open and have the meeting where you could see yourself on the other screen.
You could do a similar thing with windows and snap to the right and left but not sure if the window would then show have size for participants, would have to test.
Thanks
Henry
