Description
Wish you could get some extra help behind the scenes while presenting in a Teams meeting? Check out our new Presenter View! Once you select a PowerPoint file from the Teams Share Tray, ...
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!
Anybody is experiencing the issue of "more Option" not working in presenter view to turn off the presenter view?
I just used Teams Presenter View for the first time for a presentation to a client. As I believe somone mentioned earlier, it would be great to be able to "nominate" multiple particpants as presenters and have Presenter View visible to all of them without having to take control. We had a number of people from our company presenting to the clients and it would have been beneficial for us all of have Presenter View and be able to see slide notes without having to take control.
I also found the slide transition to be quite laggy - sometimes ~10 seconds - which could be quite jarring. Given that the PPTX file was stored on OneDrive on not my local machine I assume the delay was on the Microsoft side. As additional context we had particpants from Australia, Hong Kong, and USA on the call.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is there anything that can be done to improve slide transition time?
