MODERATORS
I knew this would be here
Misery, misery, misery, that's what you've chosen. I offered to read an email, and you spat in my face.
I am afraid
That icon should be a grabby shark
Doo doo doodoo doo doo
Unfortunately that just pops up a notification on the screen of the person sharing their screen, letting them know you asked for control and giving an approve or deny option.
Far more boring than the name would imply.
There are already a few notifications, banners, and pop-ups while presenting in Teams. If you're really lucky the presenter could instinctively click "Accept" without reading it, but it seems more likely they'd notice and verbally ask what you want it for.
So, whilst they're presenting the entire group could distract the speaker with such notifications?
What could possibly go wrong..
It's possible to turn this off for regular participants and define moderators who would still be able to do this. So you can decide beforehand whether you want to enable this for everyone or not.
I had a few meetings where the person sharing their screen was so lost, it was necessary for others to step up and take over the control of their cursor.
