A useful new function in Zoom

Thanks to a reminder from a friend, I'm now aware that when you do 'share screen' while in a Zoom meeting, and what you're sharing is a PPT, then you can choose the option of you appearing as an overlay, instead of in a small box at the top of the screen. Then, open the PPT you need to narrate, which will appear INSIDE the Zoom screen. You can even adjust your size and your position. The Zoom screen will have the next/previous slide tool bar at the bottom. So just look at your Zoom screen and present away. To me, this function is useful when I use Zoom to record an instructional video (because Zoom allows you to pause and resume recording anytime you like.).

To access this option, after you click 'share screen', open 'Advanced' at the top, and you will see 4 share options. The first one is 'share your PPT'.
