I have an accessibility question. Is there a way to invert the colors of just the screen share portion of the meeting window (of what someone else is sharing)?

Being of low vision I'm ultra sensitive to the traditional white backgrounds of apps. Having everything on my computer in dark mode works well for me, but when on a meeting I'm blinded by someone who shares their screen, and I'm unable to follow along or help them as a result. Being able to invert just the shared portion of a meeting would be life changing.

Thanks for any tips or suggestions!

Zoom Bluetooth issues in version 6.6.x

This is using an Anker Bluetooth Conference Speaker.

Update 6.6.1 the Bluetooth speaker would work and play audio but not the microphone Zoom would say cannot connect. This is working fine in Windows for both Speaker and Microphone. 

Update 6.6.6, the Bluetooth microphone started working but now the Bluetooth speaker would not. It looks fine in Zoom, but the speaker never plays any volume, this speaker works fine in Windows. 

Uninstalled and re-installed 6.5.0 and everything works as normal. 

Before anyone replies, please note that I personally understand how to navigate this issue and am not asking how to do it - I am merely recommending software improvement

I work in IT classroom/conference/event support at a university, and a big part of my job is helping people set up hybrid meetings in Zoom.  I very frequently get asked for help screen sharing powerpoints, as the majority of users I help find the interaction to be very confusing.  And indeed, I believe it is unnecessarily cumbersome in 2 major ways -

1. It is not intuitive to most people that they must put the powerpoint in full screen before sharing if they are using presenter mode while the computer is set to duplicate displays - and even if they aren't, people are often inclined to share the window rather than the screen, since they see the option to select powerpoint and think "oh, that's what I want to share."  The confusion increases when people switch between powerpoint presentations.

2. When using a remote with powerpoint while screen sharing in zoom, if they click on any zoom controls, it's not obvious that they must then click back on the powerpoint to use the remote again.

While I am not a programmer/developer and don't know how feasible these improvements are, I have some suggestions for the zoom team that seem realistic -

Regarding 1:

- If someone screen shares a powerpoint window and then starts their slideshow, zoom should prompt the user and ask if they would like to share the full screen window (with an option to choose a default action).

- Possibly zoom should list options to screen share entire apps before individual windows, which will always share the most recent window that someone has opened or interacted with for that app

- Honestly zoom should probably just always ask if you want to share the full screen powerpoint when the user goes full screen regardless of what screen they selected, because 99% of the time that's the intended use case if they are trying to use powerpoint while screen sharing.

Regarding 2:

- If someone is clicking keys or pressing buttons on a pointer that would normally be used to advance the slide, if they don't have any function in zoom, then zoom should redirect that input to powerpoint window.

- If the above isn't possible, zoom should at least prompt the user so they understand why their powerpoint isn't advancing, possibly giving the option to make that the active window

To any Zoom employees, thank you for reading and if you think these are great ideas and plan to use them, please consider getting zoom to pay me 😏 

Hi,

I wonder if anyone can help. When I'm in a meeting everything is being audio-described to me out loud (chat messages, people arriving and leaving etc) which I think means my 'screen reader' settings are on and I don't want them to be.

However, when I'm trying to find how to turn them off it seems to be in the 'accessibility' tab. I can't find one of these, and my settings menu on zoom open in my browser looks different to the examples I've seen online, with no accessibility tab.

I've tried to download the latest version thinking I may be working off an old version but the hasn't helped. I'm using a MacBook and opening zoom through safari. 

Any ideas on how I might find the accessibility tab and stop the audio description?!

Many thanks

The last few times I've been in a meeting I haven't been able to get my camera to work. This time it said "Camera being used by other apps. Close apps and try again", except I didn't have any other apps open. I even tried ending Norton on the task manager and turning the Safecam off/on. I've looked through all my settings, both on my computer and on Zoom, and nothing works. But when I go in my settings, I get a preview, so I know the camera is capable of working. I don't understand what's going on. If it helps I use an Acer.
