Pop out for video/live events/meetings
During live seminars or video conferences it would be helpful to pop out the session into a separate window so that we have full access to the teams main app during these sessions. It is distracting to have to switch to different chats even when though we already have the pop out chats.

Please can we pop out a live event. During live events I either have to ignore any chats, or watch the live event in a postage stamp.
Please.

6 month since the last comment, and this is still a thing. I actually looked up this issue because I am watching a live event (of which my company is a big fan) at the same time as working through several chat issues with remote team members.
Please let us pop this out - the tiny screen sucks. -

To have a live event occupy the primary window for MS Teams with no option to move it is absolutely ludicrous. Yes, you can click on Chat, for example, and it will move to a small window. That's just not acceptable.
As a developer, one who developed many windows enterprise systems over the last 25 years, I have to call BS on this. How difficult is it to add a button to pop-out the window? This is a window, and If it's not, then I call more BS on MS shortsightedness.

Totally agreed !
After I saw separate window for normal Teams meetings ( with new Teams meeting experience), I was fully hoping that this would be same for Live Events as well, but unfortunately it is not the case still. -

Definitely agreed - many town halls / webinars / (even MS training events) need live events but we can't see incoming chats / calendar / etc. without a bit of messing around...

Yes, please...quite annoying if other activities (like chat) are running in the background. You can't continue to what live when answering these...

It is truly frustrating that MS Live events covers up part of the teams UI. Please implement an enhancement for a future version of teams.

Now that we have pop out chat and meetings, we desperately need this for live events!

Seems like a basic, common sense feature. Currently, the minimized preview window blocks the most recent messages of other chats/channels.

Yes, please add this! It's very distracting having to swap a live event to a little PIP window to also view ongoing text chats.

Need for live events just like for Teams meetings.

Having to open live events on the web app just to have access to the rest of teams while attending is annoying. We have it for meetings - why not live events?
