TEAMS - How to move the 'camera/video bar' from the bottom to the top of the screen

Anonymous

Hello, when on TEAMS I systematically have the bar displaying all the faces / videos of participants locked at the bottom of the screen (under the control bar). Its a pain as my own camera is on top of my screen. Is there a way to move (like on Zoom or Webex) this bar of 'faces' to the top of the screen?

Thank you

Eric

    Hi Eric

    Welcome to post in the community.

    From your description, we'd like to collect the screenshot about phenomenon on your side. As far as I know, generally, you would automatically see other participants video after you join the meeting and needn't to do any settings, The screenshot is useful to understand your situation, it could be involved in your privacy, we'll collect it in Private Message. We're glad to check if there is any workaround on our side. 

    Looking forward to your update.

    Regards,

    Joey

    Hi Joey,

    there is no mystery here, the request is simply how can I move the bar with all the videos from the participant from the bottom part of the screen to the upper part of the screen. Very simple.

    Bye,

    Alfonso

    I agree with Alfonso - and have the same issue. All of my colleagues faces appear at the bottom of the screen and I would like to put that bar across the top so that it is closer to the video camera on my laptop.  How do we make this change? It should be very simple, but I have not been able to figure it out given what should be normal UX experiences.

    In agreement here as well. It would be great if my coworkers faces (as well as mine) could be at the top of the screen so as to avoid looking down from the camera to see them.

    Same here. I strongly believe that the microsoft developers do not use their own applications extensively enough to realize how well it works. When  we have a teams meeting, often someone shares a screen. we have graphs, etc. being presented. But you have this bar at the bottom (video, mike, chat, etc. bar). I can not move it. I have to click somewhere for it to disappear. but if i touch my mouse it appears again. sometimes it blocks some critical information that is being presented. How come the developers did not even think this would be an issue?
