Showing just my webcam

Sorry, can't find answer to this: How do I just show my webcam full screen, without sharing screen as well? Thanks.

    1. Share your screen
    2. Share your webcam
    3. Stop showing your screen (not pause)

    Chris, or anyone: Is this still the procedure for showing webcams only, with no screen sharing/PowerPoint? And for my webinar, there will be 3 presenters on webcam, but I will not be one of them. Should I, as the Organizer, still share my screen and then stop showing my screen even though I’m not one of the ones on webcam? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.

      Shannen  Yes, you will still need to share your screen at some point.  A simple overview slide or welcome message slide can be shown until all attendees arrive.

        Thanks AshC . I do typically have a welcome slide that I show while we are in Practice Mode, just before we go live. Can I stop showing my screen before I click "Start Broadcast"? Or do I still have to be showing my screen when I start the broadcast. Thx.

    Thanks will give it a go. Just wondering if the webcam goes full screen or still as a thumbnail when not sharing the screen.

      The webcam will be full screen if you are not also sharing a screen
