Speaker Coach is compatible with Microsoft Edge version 15 or later, Chrome version 52 or later, and Firefox version 52 or later. To see which version of Microsoft Edge you have, refer to Find out which version of Microsoft Edge you have. Microsoft Edge is updated with Windows. For information on updating, see Update Windows 10.

1. Open your presentation in PowerPoint for the web.

2. Sign in with a personal Microsoft account (hotmail.com, outlook.com, live.com, msn.com), or an Microsoft 365 work or school account.

3. On the Slide Show tab, select Rehearse with Coach. (If you've turned off the Simplified Ribbon, you don't have a Slide Show tab; instead use the View tab to start Speaker Coach.)

The presentation opens in a full-screen view, similar to Slide Show.

4. As you speak, Coach gives on-screen guidance (in the lower-right corner of the window) about pacing, inclusive language, use of profanity, filler words, and whether you're reading the slide text.

5. When you're through, exit the full-screen view. Coach opens a Rehearsal Report that summarizes what it observed and offers recommendations.

Anyone can join your presentation https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/present-live-engage-your-audience-with-live-presentations-039aa2cc-67fa-4fb5-9677-46ed8a060c8c

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
With Live Presentations in PowerPoint, audience members can see a presentation on their devices and read live subtitles in their preferred language while you speak. They can use "pinch to zoom" to see the slides more clearly on mobile devices, give feedback, send live reactions to the presenter, and navigate back to review previous slides.

Important:

To use Live Presentations, presenters must have a Microsoft 365 subscription. Audience members don't need a subscription to participate in Live Presentations.

Live Presentations is not supported for presenters in GCC, GCC-High, or DoD tenants.

Getting started

To get started with Live Presentations open your slide deck in PowerPoint for the web and go to the Slide Show tab.

Important: Live Presentations is supported on Microsoft Edge version 80+, Google Chrome version 72+, Mozilla Firefox version 68+, or Opera version 60+ on Windows or Mac. Currently Safari is not supported for presenters, but works fine for audience members.

First, check your audience setting. Click the drop arrow next to Present Live to select who should be able to connect to this presentation.

Only people in your organization - This is the default option for presenters signed in with their work or school account. It limits access to people signed in with accounts in the same Microsoft 365 organization (work or school) the presenter is in.

Anyone - If you're presenting to an audience that includes people who are not in your organization you'll need to select this one.

Next, select Present Live and your presentation will begin with a screen that shows a customized QR code. You can also start your Live presentation from the slideshow toolbar:

Your audience can point their device cameras at the QR code, tap the link that appears over the QR code, and PowerPoint Live will load your presentation in their web browser. There's nothing for them to install.

Tip: If they're having trouble using the QR code they can also just go to their browser and enter the short URL shown at the top of the presentation screen.

The audience can connect from any device has that has an Internet connection and a browser: iOS, Android, Windows, or Mac.

Important: For audiences accessing Live Presentations on their mobile devices it requires at least iOS version 11, or Android version 8.

Once your audience has joined the presentation simply advance to your first slide as normal to start presenting.

Subtitles in 60+ languages

Once your audience has loaded the presentation they will see your spoken words transcribed on the screen in near real-time. This is great for audiences when the acoustics of the venue aren't good, or if you have audience members who have difficulty hearing.

If an audience member would like to have your words translated for them into a different language, they can tap the language indicator and select from one of more than 60 other languages. Once they've selected their language your spoken words will be machine translated into that language, and shown to them on their device as subtitles.

Each audience member can select the language of their choice.

Reviewing previous slides

If an audience member wants to look back at one of your earlier slides that can do that using the slide control that appears on their screen just below the current slide. They can go all the way back to your first slide, but they can only go as far forward as the slide you're currently displaying, so you don't have to worry about them reading ahead in your deck.

Live feedback

If an audience member using PowerPoint Live wants to give you feedback as you go, they can tap the feedback button (which looks like a smiley face) towards the bottom right of their device screen. There they can select from a handful of different feedback types, from "like" to "puzzled" and more. Their selection will briefly appear on the presentation screen.

Presentation evaluation

When you end the presentation audience members using PowerPoint Live will each get a short survey where they get to rate your slide design, speaker's skill, content, and interaction with audience on a scale of 1 to 5. They can add any other comments or feedback they might have and submit. This feedback is collected by Microsoft Forms where you can view the aggregated, anonymous, responses.

Important: You can save the aggregated feedback email in your inbox, but the detailed audience feedback in Microsoft Forms isn't kept indefinitely. If you want to keep the detailed feedback, go to the feedback form, select Open in Excel, and save the resulting Excel file.

Email summary

After the presentation you will get an email containing a summary of audience feedback responses, live reactions from the audience, and some recommendations on what to improve for the next time.

Presenting remotely?

You can still use PowerPoint Live Presentations when you present remotely! Here are a few tips for your that might help:

If you're presenting using Microsoft Teams and want to use Live Presentations you'll need to use screen sharing mode, rather than presentation sharing mode, to share your presentation. Otherwise you won't be able to start Live Presentations.

It will usually be easier for your audience to use a second device, like a smartphone or tablet, to join the Live Presentation. This allows their primary device to be dedicated to the presentation itself.

If an audience member has two (or more) screens on their device it can work to join the Live Presentation in a browser window on another screen, reserving the primary screen for the presentation.

Simple clipboard manager for developers

Flycut is a clean and simple clipboard manager for developers. It based on an open-source app called Jumpcut. Flycut is also open source too: http://github.com/TermiT/flycut

Every time you copy code pieces Flycut store them in history. Later you can paste it using Shift-Command-V even if you have something different in your current clipboard. You can change hotkey and other settings in preferences.

If you have any suggestions please post them here: http://github.com/TermiT/Flycut/issues

List of contributors: http://github.com/TermiT/Flycut/contributors

Developed by developers for developers.

Version 1.9.6

Support for Apple Silicon devices

Where Have I Been?

This should have been obvious, and I can't believe Apple hasn't done something similar. MacOS doesn't allow multiple items on the clipboard, but it's very common for me to need to paste multiple items on a page. I've always just copied what I needed, pasted it, then switched back to copy the other thing, then pasted. This program is simple and intuitive (if a little clunky visually), and easily allows you to switch between items on a virtual clipboard. I would love it if you could *CLICK* to select the item you want to paste from a single pop-up rather than use the direction keys to switch between pages showing individual items, but still, I will leave at 5 stars for the joy of being able to finally do something I've always wanted to do!

Bugs in this version, but one of the best utilities I've used

The original Jumpcut has worked on every system I've tried it on and is one of the most useful apps I've ever installed, but hasn't been updated in a long time and I've had to cross my fingers that it would work after every OS upgrade... I'm glad Flycut has taken up the reins to keep this utility alive and well, but Flycut has a bug that does not allow it to remember your settings after a restart - unless you tell it to save after each clip... It won't save your preferences whenever they're changed like most other apps and it took me a while to figure out how to get it to save its preferences. There're a couple of reports of this problem on the developers GitHub, but it's still a problem.

Still, bugs aside it's one of my most used/first installed utilities and it's approach to clipboard management fits my style better than all other clipboard buffers/managers that I've tried.

Simple, Mac-like, and essential!

I've used Flycut since it was called Jumpcut-so first of all, thank you to the communty who forked Jumpcut and kept it alive. I cannot use a computer without a multi-clipboard utility and this is the best. I don't need a visual history and searchable rich clippings and stuff like that. All I need is what Flycut does: a utility that saves everything I've copied that is quick and simple to call up and paste with a keystroke.

Seriously, if Apple ever implements a multi-clipboard feature into macOS, this is the one to copy and paste. (See what I did there?) I've tried several others and none of them come anywhere close to the simplicity of Flycut. It truly is one of my top three essential apps to install on every Mac I own.

Overview

There are several recording layouts for local and cloud recordings depending on the video layout of your meeting.

The recording layout follows the video layout of the participant or host that started the recording. For example, if the host grants permission to a participant to record, and the participants starts a local recording while in active speaker view, the recording layout will be in active speaker view.

This article covers:

Desktop recording layouts

The following sections explain recording layouts when you start a local or cloud recording using the Zoom desktop client.

Active speaker

If you are in active speaker view, the recording will only display the video of the active speaker.

Note: You can only display participants' names in cloud recordings.

Gallery view

If you are in gallery view, the recording will be similar to the meeting client and display a grid layout of participants' video. The gallery view recording can display a maximum of 25 participants.

Note: You can only display participants' names in cloud recordings.

Shared screen with active speaker

If you share your screen with the active speaker thumbnail, the recording will display the active speaker thumbnail in the top-right corner. If you drag the active speaker thumbnail to another location during the meeting, the recording will still display it in the top-right corner.

Shared screen without active speaker or gallery view

If you share your screen without the active speaker thumbnail or disabled the Record thumbnails while sharing option in your cloud recording settings, the recording will only display the shared screen.

Note: For cloud recordings, if you enabled the option to Record active speaker, gallery view and shared screen separately, you will see the active speaker video beside the recorded shared screen when viewing the recording in the Zoom web portal.

Shared screen with large active speaker thumbnail

If you share your screen with the active speaker thumbnail and enlarge it, the local recording will also display a larger active speaker thumbnail in the top-right corner. If you drag the active speaker thumbnail to another location during the meeting, the recording will still display it in the top-right corner.

Note: This recording layout is not supported for cloud recordings. Cloud recordings will only display the standard active speaker thumbnail size.

Shared screen with gallery view

If you shared your screen and switched to gallery view, participants' video will appear in the top-right corner. If you drag the gallery view during the meeting, it will still appear in the top-right corner in the recording.

Note: This recording layout is not supported for cloud recordings.

Shared window

If you shared a window that doesn't take up the entire screen, you will see black bars to the right and left of the window in the recording. Participants' video will still appear in the top-right corner if you enable the active speaker thumbnail or gallery view while sharing the window.

Tip: This recording layout can be useful if you're sharing a window and don't want the active speaker window to overlay on top.

Mobile recording layouts

If you start a cloud recording on the Zoom mobile app, only the following recording layouts are supported.

Note: The Zoom mobile app only supports cloud recording.

Active speaker

If you are in active speaker view, the recording will only display the video of the active speaker.

Note:

The gallery view recording layout is not supported on the mobile app. If you are in gallery view during the meeting, the recording will still display the video of the active speaker.

If the active speaker is using a mobile device, you might see black bars to the right and left of the video depending on the supported aspect ratio of the camera and whether the device is in portrait or landscape mode.

Shared screen with active speaker

If you share your screen with the active speaker thumbnail, the recording will display the active speaker thumbnail in the top-right corner. Annotations are also recorded.

Shared screen without active speaker

If you share your screen and disabled the Record thumbnails while sharing option in your cloud recording settings, the recording will only display the shared screen.

The Waiting Room feature allows the host to control when a participant joins the meeting. As the meeting host, you can admit attendees one by one, or hold all attendees in the Waiting Room and admit them all at once. You can send all participants to the Waiting Room when joining your meeting, or you can allow participants from your Zoom account and participants with specified domains to bypass the Waiting Room. As the host, you can also choose to automatically move participants to the Waiting Room while a meeting is in progress if you lose connection from the meeting.

Participants will see the following screen when joining a meeting with Waiting Room enabled:

Note: This setting doesn't apply to inviting a Zoom Room or room system. The invited room will always be placed in the Waiting Room. Live assistants who join meetings via the dashboard or administrators using a web-based controller are also exempt from these settings.

Allow participants in the waiting room to reply to host and co-hosts: Allow participants to chat back-and-forth with participants in the Waiting Room. Waiting Room messages can be sent to all participants in the Waiting Room or just individual participants. Only the host/co-host can see responses from those in the Waiting Room. This feature requires client version 5.8.0 or higher and is disabled by default. If enabled, the host and all participants will be required to upgrade to join meetings.

Who can admit participants from the waiting room?

Note: If Users not in your account or Users who are not in your account and not part of the allowed list is selected, you can specify who can admit participants that are in the Waiting Room.

Host and co-hosts only: Only the host and co-hosts can admit participants that are in the Waiting Room.

Host, co-hosts, and anyone who bypassed the waiting room (only if host and co-hosts are not present): Only the following people can admit participants that are in the Waiting Room.

- I have Multiple Choice / Dropdown / Checkboxes questions, but they are not recognized
- Why I can't select Configuration from the add-on menu? There is nothing to be selected

Answer: Maybe you are logging in with multiple Google accounts.
This is one of the Google issues existed since 2017: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/69270374

So you can try logging in with only 1 Google account or using Incognito Window to see if the issue is resolved (at the meantime while we are waiting for Google to fix this issue)

v1.1.0 IS RELEASED!
- In this version, we add the feature to restore all options via 1 click.
It saves you time if you want to get back all of your configured options.
