When you are on a Teams meeting and participants have turned on their camera, you can now spotlight a specific video stream to all meeting participant – this also works even if the participant did not turned on the camera (but what’s the point).

To spotlight a participant, open the contextual menu of the participant to choose **spotlight **

Then if you want to unspotlight, choose either the **Stop spotlighting** from the top bar or use the same contextual menu to do the same.

You will also notice a spotlight icon on the right side of the participant name in the participant list
