Copy link for some reason puts up a text box across the conversation you're having that is dismissible with escape or clicking usual x in box corner - other "copy link" options just copy the link normally, other ones (like copying channel link) will open a window with the link for you to copy Copying a linked item (e.g., document, media, picture) will have Download or Copy Link button. All teams messages are linkable whether or not you right-clicked on a link in the message and are copying the link or if you're getting a link to the message itself depends on if you happen to notice whether you have 2 options on right-click or 3+ options Regarding Reply/Edit, there is a nice button to jump right to both, but for chats one button is showed, for private messages another is shown Sometimes right-click menu loads slowly and additional options load after you right-click and move the mouse - it so happens this will usually put the cursor on Pinning the message instead of selecting reply or edit Joining a meeting from your calendar gives you a "pre-meeting room" where you can confirm your mic/video settings before joining, but hitting the call shortcut or button immediately starts a call For some bizarre reason Teams has a "start call" shortcut that just immediately starts a call without the usual pre-call warning items. When joining a Teams call, the toggle for video gets "selected" so that pressing Return or spacebar (I think one or both) will toggle the video on - noticing that you did this or that the video toggle is selected is a matter of chance as it's hard to see The meeting icons are of course pretty awful as you cited, but it's even more things for me : I don't mean to just blanket shit on Teams, but Teams is just a confusing mess of UI choices and UX design that makes no sense even within the context of using Teams. I wonder if this is the price we pay for "flat UI", where designers are still figuring out design elements without a real-world reference to look back on. Is this because in one case, that button is a "mic on" button, but in the other it is a "mute on" button, using the same icon? And the button still does an OK job of indicating what state you are currently in, as long as you know what the button looks like in the opposite state (I always have to toggle the mute button a couple times to observe what paradigm the given app is using). After pressing it, the icon is still a mic with the line, but it changes to a filled in background (reverse video). Makes sense.īut if I join using the phone app on my phone, the same microphone with a line through it (that means you are muted on Teams) indicates that you are currently NOT muted, but you can use that button to activate mute. And the icon changes to a microphone without the slash over it to indicate that you are no longer muted. If I'm in their app, the mute button is a microphone with a line through it (if mute is activated, i.e. This has been really frustrating to me lately with Microsoft Teams.
