Dear KateG ,
Thank you for your response. I am aware of the solution you mention (Share Screen), but unfortunately, it is causing issues, as sometimes popups from other software appear. Therefore, the "Share Application" option resolves that issue but creates confusion for my speakers, as they cannot share the slide show view. Microsoft Teams does not have this problem. With Microsoft Teams, when you "Share Application" (PowerPoint) while in editing view and then switch to slide show, everything works smoothly.
Would it be possible to address this important issue in a future update?
Hi Aristeidis, as a best practice Presenters should exit any applications that may cause pop up messages on their screens before they begin presenting. Another option is to pause notifications temporarily, both Windows and Mac support this.
We have started investigating what is required to introduce an old Labs beta feature that existed in GoTo Webinar Classic, it allowed the Presenter to share a rectangle portion of their screen that they defined. I hope to have more news about this later in the year.
