Webinar- Sign Language issue while using a powerpoint presentation

I am hosting a webinar and will be using a sign language interpreter. Two of the presenters are using a powerpoint presentation. When they screenshare the SLI screen becomes very small. Is there a setting that allows the SLI be at 50% and the powerpoint at 50%. Any help would be appreciated as I need to make the SLI as large as possible during the presentations> Thanks

    Hello Con,

     

    There isn't a setting here that would set a 50/50 split; however, you can set the attendee layout to "Side-by-Side: Gallery". This will allow the attendees to control the ratio of screen share to webcams. For more information on side-by-side mode, please click here.

     

    If you do housekeeping at the beginning of your webinar, you can then instruct your attendees on how to control their side-by-side view. 

     

    Hope this helps!

    Please ask Zoom to enhance the product to include native Sign Language interpretation options... you can post your request here: Feedback - Zoom.
    Sign Language interpretation should be on par with spoken language interpretation instead of relegated to workarounds like spotlighting that make it difficult to use and have limitations.
