I don't think you can turn it off, but what you can do is work in your Drafts folder, or work on a file that isn't shared. I've done this for designs I don't think are ready to be looked at.
You can always know if somebody is watching your file, because their avatar picture pops up in the top right corner. You could miss noticing that, if you're really focused on something. But if someone is zoomed in far enough to be watching what you're doing, their cursor is probably going to be visible on your screen.
- exodust 4y agoThanks. I will explore the Drafts folder and other options. I will never be comfortable with my team members watching me work without my control over that. Unless of course we're on a call with the intent to collaborate and share in real time. Otherwise I'm not onboard the idea that "multiplayer" is the default way of working. My mouse movements and decision making at any given second in time are not inherently valuable, and are a mine to share, not Adobe's to publish. It bothers me that the likes of Adobe and others try so hard to push a paradigm that results in more data points for them. More spying windows into the designer's processes, right down to mouse movement and other details. I don't understand why designers are rushing to hand over such data to what is essentially a cloud service data miner, soon to be Adobe.
