Teams Web No Screen Sharing From Chat?

Is there a reason why the web version of Teams running in Edge or Chrome does not have a button to screen share within a chat like the desktop application?  Is this going to be corrected in a future ...

    You can start an audio call and then screen share. But haven't seen anything about it getting added. I'm sure it's on the back log but it's like that for everyone currently.

Hi jdbst56 

 

I've been using Web Teams from linux about 2 years ago. I could do every thing I did in a linux desktop client (witch performance is embarrasing): share screen, share files... It was the same but with less resourses usage.

 

Latlely I've notice I am not able to share my screen on a meeting, or I couldn't find where.

It smells to me like a disabled capability to force users to move to Desktop Client (thing I'll never do, more if you have other alternatives to do it like google meeting, zoom...).

 

I asked for that on twitter. I'll share here if I discover something.

MartinMartosSimon have you changed to Wayland? It's still not supported. I returned to xorg and i can share my Linux desktop and workspaces

    Cesarius1970I was using X11.

    It was a cookie trouble.

    I had to add some 3 party cookies domains and now I can use it.
