I'm pretty disappointed that the "rectangle" share was deprecated.
I used go to meeting for a demonstration today and it was very awkward to have to change the application i was sharing to show different screens and with the resolution of my monitor sharing the whole screen to folks with lower resolution monitors is not practical.
Fortunately, i think I've found a solution. I downloaded and tested "region to share" from the Micosoft store and so far it seems to be working although i have not down an actual demo with it, only a test meeting on my machine.
I can't understand why someone at GoToMeeting didn't suggest this or something similar.
Hi Stevemorin,
The ability to share a rectangle is on our list of features to be added to the new GoTo App experience, however, as it was a Labs feature in GoToMeeting Classic and not a widely used feature by the majority of customers, it has a lower priority than other features we are in the process of adding.
Thank you for suggesting "region to share" as a possible solution, it looks very promising.

Glad it's coming back.

You kept it a secret. I'm not sure how i found it but it was only in the lab. Everyone i told about it loved it and used it.

Is there an update on this? As ultra-wide monitors and other screens of varying sizes and aspect ratios become more common, this is becoming more and more of an issue. I previously shared a rectangle sized for display on a normal screen, and could use that as a "stage" on my ultrawide monitor, dragging various apps and windows in from around it as needed. These changes now require clunky individual selection and make quickly toggling between two things, or dividing the screen between two windows entirely impossible. This has greatly degraded GTM for my purposes and I miss the rectangle feature dearly. Please bring it back!
