Ability for meeting participants to draw on shared screen
Participants in a a meeting with a shared screen should have the ability to draw (with their mouse or touch pen) on the shared screen. E.g. if a PowerPoint is being presented, participants would have their designated color to draw with (to distinguish who is drawing) and a mouse pointer in the same color. The could then point and draw for the other participants in the meeting to see. This would be similar to a whiteboard, only it would be for drawing on top of a shared screen.

This is a major competitive advantage to Slack, and one aspect of Teams that is delaying our adoption. Please consider adding this feature.

Essential function! We use this in every meeting using Zoom. Will not consider Teams without this feature.

GoTo Meeting has had this feature for years. Come on Microsoft Teams... step your game up!

Deal breaker when comparing Slack vs Teams. It's such a simple and useful feature!

I hear this is already planned for coming at some point; I too request it to be reprioritized higher because of the impact it has on training our remote employees virtually.

I found a better solution for this issue. It's called zoom.

Please, please, please allow an arrow, annotation, mouse mirror. Something. We often use teams for trouble-shooting on a remote computer and if I have to keep directing people by describing where to put their mouse I"m going to throw my computer out the window.

Very much this - I'd love to have this option - I'm preparing for customer presentation and looked for a way I can give more focus to the customer, so that he knows what to look at

I understand this will be added in the later updates of Teams, however I would urge this be pushed forward due to the need for interactivity within virtual meetings. Already this is causing issues with our Skype customers due to the lack of features available in Team - Skype.
