When screen sharing, the "give control/stop sharing" box blocks the top of the screen
Allow the dropdown at the top of the screen to be disabled. If I'm sharing a web-browser with tabs, they are not accessible when the screen-sharing dropdown expands. You can pin it down but you can't make it so that it stays hidden. This feature is really frustrating when trying to navigate between tabs as the drop down repeatedly appears and blocks access to the tabs.


Done! Merry Christmas.

This hasn't been fixed! The toolbar is still getting in the way when I want to share screens and also switch tabs! Very annoying indeed. A simple fix would be to give the user the option disable this bar from the 'More Actions' burger, or just move all the functions into this 'More Actions' menu.
Really, this bar does not contain any highly important functionality that needs to be at the top of the screen when sharing, and all of the functionality could be moved/is already redundant:
'Presenting...' - I know I am presenting, there is a big red box around my screen
'Give Control' - How often do users really need to give control to other users? I don't disagree with this feature, but there is no reason why it couldn't be moved to a button in the call popup in the bottom right window.
'Include system audio' - this should only be changeable from the 'share screen' options, how often is a user going to want to change this halfway though presenting?
'Stop presenting' - There is already a button to stop sharing in the call pop up (where it belongs!). Why is there two buttons that do the same thing?

this is absolutely not done! Please Please Please for the love of God fix this. It is one of the most aggravating features I have ever experienced. I have to resize things on my desktop to make screen sharing and accessing multiple tabs possible.

Toolbar should be MOVEABLE, obviously.

I should add that this is when being used in conjunction with a remote "clicker". The same behaviour can be replicated by clicking the GUI slide control then Shift+Tab back to the presentation and using the arrow keys to navigate the powerpoint...This is a behaviour that is turning our staff away from using teams.

This behaviour is happening within the app also, there is no pin in the teams app so the workaround cannot be applied. Is there a known solution for this?

Agreed. You have to stop sharing screen, then do what you need to do and then re-share the screen.
Often it works as expected after having done that. You should be able to fix it.
It always happen for me when I share a Chrome browser in full screen mode with screen sharing.
