Just to update from yesterday. Yes it worked fine & dandy, no lag, no stutter...was using cross-functional (swimlane) maps utilising BPMN.
Have it open on your desktop, point Teams to it, go full screen, no problem.
Only issue I did have was with Visio generally at the start (but luckily prior to the meeting), which was making my laptop screen go black - not sure what the issue was at the time.
The cure is, make sure you go into File/Options/Advanced, scroll down to Display, and make sure you tick 'Disable hardware graphics acceleration'. Crack on.

I'll be testing it tomorrow in a couple of teams meetings, so I'll report back. Someone might find the info of value.
Mural is ok, but the lag and zoom and changes can be frustrating, and it's not that great for complex processes, great for stickies, retro's and votingLeave a comment:

I don't use Visio - far too expensive. I use EdrawMax for my process drawing (I use Sparx EA for my own use but the diagrams aren't sexy enough for the current client).
I have Whiteboard on my iPad and I would like to use that with Teams (using a stylus), but I'm not sure that I could have the same session on the laptop and iPad together.Leave a comment:
