A small toolbar will show overlaid on your screen while the screencast is ongoing. Then, Slack will share your entire screen with your team. On Macs, you may first have to allow Slack to record your screen follow the instructions in the Slack popup to do that. To share your screen, click the screen icon in the middle of the set of buttons. Click the phone icon in any Slack channel or direct message conversation to start a call-which in Slack, calls are audio-only by default, with a camera button to click to start a video call. That is a LOT of wasted time.Slack includes a slightly hidden way to share your screen: Inside Slack's video calls. But that 10 seconds is multiplied by the number of users who want that icon to stay visible, for every update.
It only takes about 10 seconds for us users to change the setting on the new icon, after we discover it's missing.
Seriously, you need to mark this as important. So it might appear to the uninformed that the Slack client update didn't trigger the problem, but it did. It also doesn't help, that after a client update, the old client runs until exited (as the taskbar icon remains visible), but on the next launch, the icon goes into the overflow.
Okay, maybe not none, but I have never encountered another one, and I am a super geek. No other application that uses notification icons does this after an update. If there is one application that MUST always be visible in the taskbar, it is Slack, and you keep falling down on this basic requirement.Ĭlearly, with every Slack client update, the operating system thinks it's a new app (with a new GUID or whatever the nomenclature is), so defaults to the notification icon being in the overflow. This issue has persisted for over a year, and a Slack update this morning did the same thing - the icon is in the notification overflow window, instead of on the taskbar. I sent them this message on the 'help' issue I first submitted 19 months ago:
This issue has been around for nearly two years. It seems this changes when the application is updated. Additionally, every time there is a Slack client app update, you have to go into the "Select which icons appear on the taskbar" in Windows 10 to turn on the "new" icon.
