Screen Sharing

Important: Screen Sharing features are open to all participants in a meeting and not limited to the Meeting Host only.

To begin screen sharing:

  1. Click the Monitor icon at the bottom of the screen:

    Share screen
  2. On Chrome Web Browser: you will be prompted to share your entire screen, an application or Chrome tab to share:

    Choose screen

On Online Meeting Desktop Application or Elevate:

Entire screen

To stop screen sharing you may choose the floating widget shown at the bottom of the screen:

Stop share

Or navigate back to the meeting screen and see the top of your screen there:

Stop

Note: for best results, use a screen resolution of 1920 x 1080. A higher resolution (2560 X 1440) will cause your audience to see a blurry screen

MP4 Playback

If you click the 3 dots next to the monitor icon, you are offered the option to share an MP4 video:
