# \&screensharehide

Sender-Side Option! ([`&push`](/advanced-settings/setup-parameters/push.md))

## Aliases

* `&sshide`
* `&hidescreenshare`
* `&hidess`

## Details

This hides the publisher's local screen-share preview window that appears when screen sharing in a room. You can use this if you want to screen share in a room, but you don't want to see your own screen share.

This does not hide incoming screen shares on viewer or scene links. To prevent a scene or viewer from loading remote screen shares, use [`&noscreenshare`](/advanced-settings/screen-share-parameters/and-noscreenshare.md).

Using [`&screensharetype=3`](/advanced-settings/screen-share-parameters/and-screensharetype.md) also hides the local screen-share window.

## Example

```
https://vdo.ninja/?room=ROOMNAME&screenshare&hidescreenshare
```

This lets the publisher screen share into the room without showing their own local screen-share preview.
