Then select the Screen Share tab:


Viewing resolution

This setting dictates the resolution that will be used when someone else shares their screen with. If you adjust this setting with a session is in progress, it will be utilized in the next call. On a call where faster interactions are necessary, you might want to set this lower; if you don't need to do a lot of typing or clicking but want high viewing quality, then set it higher.


When Sharing My Screen


Outline Shared Region

If this option is enabled, a purple border will appear around the area of your screen that's being shared.


Open links sent to my clipboard

If you don't like the fact that guests can force a URL to open on your computer, you can disable this. URLs will still be sent to your clipboard, but you have to explicitly paste them into a browser to open them.


Annotations


Persist until right click

If selected, any drawings created with the paint mouse mode will persist until you right click. You can also change this while on a call via the settings drop down on the screen share window.


Participant Cursors


Always show other cursors

If this setting is enabled, you'll see other participants' cursors all the time. If it's disabled, you'll only see them if another participant enters control mode.


Automatically show name labels

If this setting is enabled, you'll see name labels appear on other participants' cursors whenever they enter a call, take control, or begin annotating on the screen. If it's disabled, name labels will only be shown if you hover over another participant's cursor.
