When I am in the new Town Hall feature, I cannot use PowerPoint live or presenter mode. I can share a screen but as the presenter the content does not appear in the red outlined area for me to view and manage. Please help.Picture1

    Hi @Robinson, Anne-Marie

    If you want to enable Presenter mode, Whiteboard, PowerPoint Live, and Excel Live, please create a regular meeting or webinar.

    Presenter mode, Whiteboard, PowerPoint Live, and Excel Live aren't available for use in Live Events and Town Halls, this is by design.

    To get this feature more quickly, you can send a feedback directly to Microsoft Feedback to add it in future updates. Many features of our current products are designed and upgraded based on customers’ feedback. With requirements like this increase, the problem may well be released in the future. Thanks for your understanding and support.
