Present a screen or window, check that the intended source is visible, and choose a layout that makes it easy to follow. Several participants can share at once; each share has its own selectable feed.
Before starting, open the material you want to show and decide how much of your display the room should see. Sharing an entire screen includes anything that appears on it.
Choose A Source
Cancelling the picker does not start a share. If the desktop selector says Nothing available to share, open the desired screen or window and check the operating system's screen-capture permission before trying again.
Confirm What The Room Can See
Starting a share makes it available to the room. It does not force everyone to select it.
Choose The View You Need
Use Stage to keep the source large with other feeds in a carousel. Use Focus when small text or detailed artwork needs more room. Return to Grid to compare several active shares or choose another source.
Selecting another feed or changing layout does not stop your share. The layout you choose also does not rearrange another participant's stage.
Replace Or Stop Your Share
In a supported desktop app, reopen the screen-source selector, choose another screen or window, and use Switch share. Where the browser or platform does not offer replacement, stop the current share and begin again with the new source.
Use Stop sharing screen to remove your share while remaining in the call. Your microphone and camera have separate controls.
Present While Working Elsewhere
Close the stage to continue in Visual Space with picture-in-picture. The screen share remains active, including when you collapse the preview to an edge.
The active-share indicator and stop control remain visible after the full stage closes, confirming that changing view does not stop publication.
If you are sharing the whole display, stop the share before opening unrelated private material. When finished with the conversation itself, use Leave meeting rather than merely closing the stage.
Resolve A Sharing Problem
Media and call controls covers device and connection states; Stage and layouts explains feed selection and fullscreen.
