Adjust the number of participants you see in grid layout

Grid layout automatically adjusts to the number of participants in the meeting. By default, a maximum of 25 videos are displayed in a 5 × 5 grid, but you can adjust this number.

  1. During a meeting, go to Settings > Meetings > Layout.
  2. Set the default number by choosing a value from the drop-down list, and then click Save.

    The maximum number of videos you can select is adjusted to the maximum number supported by your computer. For more information, see requirements.

  3. In the meeting window, click Increase or decrease video size zoom button for grid view and use the slider to adjust the number of participants that show in the grid.

 

If your internet connection or desktop has insufficient resources, the maximum number of videos displayed per page is automatically reduced to preserve the video quality of each video.

When you set your self view to Show with others, your self-view always shows first, in the upper-left corner of the first page. If you increase the video size to show only one participant per page, then only the active speaker displays on the first page.


 

You don't need to be in a meeting to adjust the maximum number of participants to show in grid layout. You can do it anytime and the change applies to all your future meetings in the app. Open settings from your profile picture, select Meetings > Layout. Choose your option, then click Save.

If your computer meets the following requirements, you can select 81 videos per page in grid view. Otherwise, the maximum number of videos you can select is adjusted to the maximum number supported by your computer.
