Pop Out
3 TopicsCalls are opening in separate window with no option to disable
Hello - My Teams is opening all calls / meetings in a separate popped out window and there is no option in settings to disable this. This feature makes Teams very hard to use when utilising more than one screen because it opens across two screens / off the screens. Adds time to being able to connect to a call quickly. There is also no option to pop the call back into Teams when the call has commenced?Solved24KViews2likes22CommentsVideo call window layout problematic on MacOS
For some time now there has been no option to run video calls within the main window anymore. There is a separate thread on this which I really hope the developers read (and react accordingly): Calls are opening in separate window with no option to disable Unfortunately this design decision is also quite problematic for MacOS users: the most important controls (Camera, Microphone, Share screen, Leave) are in the top right corner now. This happens to be the same part of the screen where OS notifications appear and stack up. People like me leave the notifications where they are until there is time to process them. With the new video call window layout now I need to either clear them (which I don't want), run video calls in a smaller window (which I don't want) or move the video call window out of the way before accessing the controls (very inconvenient). Of course this is nothing that cannot be worked around. But it is not ergonomic at all and very inconvenient. IMO the best solution would be to allow users to run calls in the main window again and with this restore the old layout. I think that this is generally a good idea. While in video calls I often need to look into other chats. The way things are forced upon us now this means switching between windows which is again very confusing and inconvenient. Please, bring back support for running calls in the main window and with it the old layout!909Views0likes0Comments
