Microsoft Teams calendar pop-out screens

As you may have noticed over the years, Microsoft Teams tends to have anything you do appear on a single window, making it difficult to reference content from two or more sources at the same time. We’re now seeing a trend to allow users to “pop-out” a screen into a separate window so you can be viewing multiple content sources, such as with multiple chats. The latest addition to this is for Teams calendar entries, which now pop out the new meeting invite when you start to set it up. Here’s how that works…
