We're excited to share that we've developed a new Live Poll Plugin, which you can use in StreamYard Software. Here is a step-by-step guide on utilizing the new plugin:

1. Once you created or customized a poll, open your Live Poll Settings, make a tick on the following box, and copy the generated link.

2. Paste the copied link in a new Browser.

3. Open your StreamYard Studio, and click on Share Screen button in the bottom.

4. Choose Chrome Tab > LiveReacting Studio, and click Share.

StreamYard select LiveReacting Studio poll tab

5. Go back to your Live Poll project in the LiveReacting Studio, and click on Start.

To ensure that the poll fills the entire screen without being cut off, adjust the tab with the poll to make it narrower until the proportions are 16:9. This way, you will not have white bars in the stream, and the poll will take up more space.

Now your Live Poll must be visible to everyone. When the game is over, you can easily remove the screen with Live Poll by going back to the Studio, and clicking on End Stream button > stop Screen Sharing on StreamYard.
