Spotlighting a video is like pinning it for everyone in the meeting. If you're an organizer or a presenter, you can choose up to seven people's video feeds (including your own) to highlight for everyone else.
Note
You won't be able to spotlight a video if your view is set to Large gallery or Together mode.
Spotlight someone else's video
There are a couple of different ways to do it:
- Right-click on the person's video itself and select Spotlight for everyone
from the menu (or Add spotlight
> Spotlight for everyone, if someone else is already spotlighted). - Select People
to see a list of everyone in the meeting. Find the name of the person in the list whose video you want to highlight, right-click on their name, and select Spotlight for everyone
. - When you're ready to end the spotlight, right-click again and choose Stop spotlighting
. - If multiple people are spotlighted, you can stop spotlighting everyone at once by selecting People
in your meeting controls and selecting More actions
> Stop all spotlights
> Stop spotlighting
.
Spotlight your own video

- Hover over your video and select More options
> Spotlight for everyone
