Why isn't it possible in Teams Rooms comment featuere on a Touch-Display (like 86 inch) to change the pen size and colour while annotating? You can only change colour and size on mobile/windows but not in Teams rooms...

    Hello @SCHMIDT Dominik

    Thank you for posting your valuable question on Microsoft Q&A forum. 

    Before providing the accurate solution, can you confirm this following information: 

    • Are you using Whiteboard to annotate on your touch display? 
    • Can you test on other touch display to see if this issue still persists? 
    • What kind of touch display are you using? 

    If comfortable, can you provide the sreenshots describing the issue? (Please remember to remove any personal information before updating image on this forum). 

    According to my research, your issue typically comes from the uncompatible device. You can confirm that the touch screen display device is compatible with MTRoW. Please refer to Teams Rooms certified systems and peripherals. 

    Please understand that our initial response does not always resolve the issue immediately. However, with your help and more detailed information, we can work together to find a solution.

    Hello @SCHMIDT Dominik,  

    Thank you for your kind response. 

    Based on the details you shared, I've check if your device is compatible in the Teams Rooms certified systems and peripherals

    • Iiyama touch display is currently not compatible with the Team Rooms certified systems. 
    • YeaLink meetingboard pro is currently not fully supported.

    To save your time, I recommend you contact both Microsoft Teams Rooms support and third-party Teams devices support: 

    These support teams are best equipped to determine whether this is a bug or expected behavior. While I’d love to assist you further, as a Forum Moderator, my resources are limited and I’m unable to conduct a deeper analysis. I appreciate your understanding.
