Computer desktop

If you use the ENGAGE app on a Windows or macOS device, you can share your desktop or a specific application that is open.
There are known issues on systems that use a second screen connected by USB. If you can't share any of your screens, disconnect all external screens, restart ENGAGE, and try to share your primary display. We are working to resolve these issues
To share your desktop, complete the following steps:
  1. 1.
    Open your menu or tablet.
  2. 2.
    Select Shared Screen
    .
  3. 3.
    On the Shared Screen page, select Desktop, and then select View desktop.
  4. 4.
    Select the screen or application that you want to share, and then select Share.
  5. 5.
    If a warning appears that describes a 5 minute share limit. Select Continue. For more information about the share limit, see Sharing media.
To select a different screen or application after you start to share, select Change source in the upper left corner of the menu.
To cancel the desktop or application share, select Stop sharing in the upper-right corner of the Shared Screen page.
If you share your desktop for over one hour, a prompt is displayed to confirm if you want to continue sharing.
