I recently discovered utilizing animations and presenting PowerPoint live mode is not capturing the animations. In other words, each slide is being recorded as if there is no animations applied. This is not good since we want to phase in the content from the slide.
Update/clarification - turns out the recording of the meeting, if using any other format - Presenter Modes for example, does capture the animations on the slides. It is only when attempting to record the meeting while the Presenter has selected PowerPoint live is when the animations are not captured in the recorded file - participants within the meeting are able to see the animations as they occur - but recorded viewers will not. Just wanted to share the "work around". Thanks!

@David_Goddard it is a documented limitation of PowerPoint live, well known by Microsoft. See ...

I imagine fixing it is harder than it may seem, many web based services (e.g. including Whiteboard) aren't recorded either, perhaps needs a significant overhaul of how recordings are created. I would suggest add you votes to the Feedback portal to explain to Microsoft the priority around this

@Steven Collier I was very disappointed to learn that Microsoft has continued to let this major flaw remain. Instead of embracing teams more, I'm looking for other, non-Microsoft options.

@Jennifer Brown If you share a screen with PPT on it then animation etc will be recorded, this lack of feature is specific to PowerPoint live, where the presentation is within Teams.
I've not heard of any other product with a feature like PowerPoint Live.
