Region to Share

Running into issues during videoconferencing is more common than you'd think. Whether it is a microphone or camera problem, or perhaps something related to someone's internet connection, such inconveniences aren't at all uncommon.

Screen sharing can also be problematic sometimes, especially when some apps, such as Teams and WebEx, only allow users to either share their full screen, or just a single window. In that case, a tool like Region to Share can come in handy: through it, users can designate an area on their desktop, and only share that specific region during their videoconferencing meetings.

To minimize any confusion, the tool is as simple as they come. There isn't really a set-up outside of resizing the app's window to designate the area on your screen that you want to share, then choosing its window in your videoconferencing solution of choice.

That is pretty much all that needs to be done: you're free to resize the app's window however you want, and its graphic is helpful in how it aids users in accounting for the usable area within their chosen region.

As stated before, this lightweight app was conceived to help users share only a specific part of their screen, as there's a number of mainstream offerings lacking in that department. Upon choosing the relevant area for your presentation, all you have to do is select the Region to Share window from your videoconferencing app, and on you go.

Drag what you want to present in the designated region, and it'll appear as if it were shared full-screen. If you need more area to cover, you can resize Region to Share's window anytime.

Region to Share is a neat tool for those looking to share only a part of their screen during videoconferencing meetings: it's simple to set up, and it works to good effect.
