When I share my screen in presenter view, my notes are visible to the other party.

I need your help and collective wisdom, I am having some issues while sharing my PowerPoint presentations and viewing my presentation notes at the same time (I want my presentation notes to be visible only to me, not to the participants). I have both MacBook Air and mac book pro m3 laptops, I have the same issue on both.

1) When I do Presentation View in PPT slideshow options, everyone can see my presentation notes in the side panel. I want only me to see the presentation notes. What can I do to prevent others from viewing them?

 

2) When I do Basic Screen Sharing of my PPT, I cannot see my presentation notes in the side panel. So when I choose Advanced Share Screen - and make a section of the screen, it appears as a blurry quality resolution for most participants. The framed part of the shared slide appears clear on my side, but not for everyone else.

 

3) Before sharing, I open my own slide in presenter mode. Then when I say share screen, only the 'share in presenter view' option appears. No other option appears.
However, when another friend tries it on his own computer, three options appear: 'share in presenter view', 'share in slide show' and 'share in power point'. When my friend opens presenter view on his own computer and clicks 'share in slide show' in the screen share options, the presenter notes appear on his computer, but the notes on the other side do not. His computer is also a macbook pro m2.
I wonder where the problem is, can you help me?

Presentation view changes size at random in app?

Hello! I'm hoping someone might know a fix for this issue I'm having. For background, I use the Zoom app on my iPad and it's updated to the latest version.

 

When I am viewing someone else's screen share presentation (with the floating speaker on top of it, if that makes a difference) the presentation window will, seemingly at random, shrink down and leave a tall dark grey bar on the right side of the screen. It's almost like the app thinks I've opened the participants/chat window, but it doesn't display any content on top of the grey background color. Sometimes the screen will appear normally if I open the participants/chat window, but other times the screen will shrink even further upon opening it. The participants/chat will appear on the right side, the presentation/speaker on the left, and a grey bar in the middle. If it appears normally, it typically shrinks down again anyway after some time. This just happened in my current call.

 

Does anyone know why this might be happening and how to fix it? Please let me know if any additional info would be helpful.

How do I remove this hint pop-up message on my shared application screens?

There is a kind of "hint" message that displays along the upper corner of the application window, which is impeding upon my ability to work.  the message displayed, "Drag to desktop 2 to share" is obstructing my view.

 

I have a 4-monitor screen set-up, and (while hosting) I'm sharing all windows from a particular application.  The application I've chose to share has multiple windows across all four monitor screens.   I understand to "Share all windows from an application" means I'm required to determine which one of my four monitors will be used to share any windows associated with this app.  I've chose to use "Desktop 2." 

 

Although Zoom doesn't allow me to share multiple monitor screens at once (which I would certainly prefer over sharing multiple app windows in a single screen, since squeezing my 4-monitor workflow into a single monitor is not conducive for displaying my productivity "live" so to speak), I do still appreciate that Zoom allows me some freedom in choosing-at-will the app windows I want to share.  With that said, I don't need the hint to remain displayed.  How do we hide it?  In my case, I'd like to simply prevent it from appearing at all, since I'm already aware of the functionality for sharing app windows.

 

I've provided a screenshot of the instance, here.  Thank you!

Hi,

 

I have been experiencing the following issue when screen sharing on Zoom: I use two monitors, one set up with JW Library and Zoom and the other with the second screen for JW Library enabled (with the yeartext/media playing). When I go to share that second screen, it automatically minimises. I can bring it back up by clicking the window in the taskbar. The same thing happens when I stop screen sharing. It's not the end of the world, just inconvenient. Anyone know how to fix this?

There should be an option to have video optimisation and audio set to ON in the settings (in preference settings).

I cannot seem to locate the share screen and side-by-side mode boxes in settings to use during my meetings when showing a power point presentation. When I do show it I always end up with at least 3 gray boxes covering the screen and it shows up on the viewer side and in my recordings. Any solutions for my issues?
