Preview exited, now GA: PowerPoint Presenter View in Teams
For everyone asking for a way to toggle presenter view, thank you for your feedback! We feel your pain and are addressing it with a quick mitigation via a keyboard shortcut for now: try clicking in the slide area, and press "Ctrl+Shift+X". The notes and thumbnail strip should be closed. Using the same keyboard shortcut key again can bring the presenter view back. This update will be available in a day or two.
At the same time, we are also working on hiding the presenter view by default on devices with small screen. It will be available soon.
Again, thank you for being a part of public preview and helping us make the product better!
Emily Kirby In my case, as I said in a previous comment, this feature seems to be disabled (by default?) and since yesterday I am unable to re-enable it by using the Ctrl+Shift+X shortcut -- although it seemed to work the day before.
Since, as I have explained earlier, I find it very useful in some cases (in a teaching situation), and although my screen might be small, I would really like to have the option to enable/disable this feature at will.
Does anyone else have the same issue? Is it a global change or something was altered by the IT dept / admin on my organization's end?
