Use of a laser pointer in screen share
Having the use of a laser pointer in screenshare within Teams, and the ability to switch between a laser pointer, normal arrow and drawing pen would be an extremely useful addition.

Using presentation to be only in an windows can give you easy option to use the presenter option like laser pointer [Ctrl]+[left mouse button]. When doing slideshow on-line under menu "Slide Show" find "Set Up Show" and choose radio-button "browsed by an individual (window)

Being able to laser point on any screen share would greatly help with remote training.

Make sure the pointer is a capability available to ALL meeting participants and not just the presenter. This way if someone is sharing and having control others can point things out without control.

Why are the same presentation options that are available for regular powerpoint multi-cast not available for teams presentation ?
I want to be able to see the next slide, the commands, and switch to mouse, laser pointer, highlighter, and drawing pen on my screen, while the audience only sees a full screen presentation, the way I can in a meeting room with powerpoint beeing projected on screen... -

Please add Laserpointer for guests of a Presentation.
They'll need it, when they want to ask questions to the presenter. -

I strongly agree. The same as i Power Point. It would be much easier to draw audience's attention to something on a shared screen.

I agree with all the comments. During lessons, I need to point some areas on my screen, and not being able to is frustrating.

Totally agree, I can't believe that such a fundamental function is missing.

I agree, similar options to what are available in powerpoint would be awesome - laser pointer, highlighter and pen so that things could be circled or highlighted and then the ability to erase or delete either just some of the drawing and highlights or all of them at once.
