yeah I wouldn't disagree, have been ignorant to the solution on this one. It's a recent concern as I'm new to Teams and working at a company with an older demographic than I'm used to so I'm kind of new to getting this request so much tbh. When people complain about having "aging eyes" my default response has been to zoom up to 150% but beyond that I can't even use my own computer as a presentation device for myself which is a showstopper, so my initial thought was tell them to use the Zoom, it's what you do on your phone to read small text, browser to read news, etc. and honestly I zoom in when I can't read someone elses screen (I've never asked someone to increase a font size mid-presentation). Part of the problem is the content kind of requires a lot of columns of data to be visible at once. Bouncing around from YTD to MTD sections by section kind of breaks the flow of the meeting, especially because while I'm presenting they are all individually consuming the content differently (one guy only care's about Margins, one guy only cares about Expenses, etc so it helps to have a lot on the screen at once and let them zoom into what they care about)
All said, I'm definitely going to try out all the suggestions here and see if I can figure out a better solution. Thanks HN!
