We are financial advisors who like to highlight things on a clients account or plan when having a virtual meeting.  Currently we have to use Go-To Meeting to allow us to draw or highlight data to call it out.  Has MS Teams considered adding a feature to allow users to highlight or draw on a shared screen which may be a document or website?

    Zoom allows all meeting participants to annotate/draw the screen that is being shared. There are annotations identify who added the drawing or text. But MS Teams does not allow any annotation/draws by participants.

    ♦♦♦ Please help vote for this feature in the below link -- it is very important for collaboration (Allows all participants to add drawings, shapes, or text on shared screen).

    Since Slack is the only conferencing software I know of that has this functionality, I would guess that some of Slack's patents make it difficult to implement this without a very technical legal team reviewing the architecture.

    See:
    US Patent for Dynamic object update subscriptions based on user interactions with an interface Patent (Patent # 10,397,624 issued August 27, 2019) - Justia Patents Search
