I assume it will become generally available by the time the Creators Update ships. To be clear, you will need both the latest version of the app and a recent build of the Creators Update to use this feature. Thanks to a tip on Twitter from Microsoft’s Jen Gentleman, I see that Skype Preview, as promised, has also picked up this functionality in a new app update. I joked at the time that iPad has had this functionality for years, because it has, but it’s a useful update nonetheless, of course. Basically, it allows apps to provide a Picture-in-Picture (PIP) type display so that the user can continue viewing video while using other apps.

Microsoft revealed that it would be adding Compact Overlay to the Creators Update in February, but it’s only recently been made available in an app for the first time. Skype Preview is the second Windows 10 in-box app to add support for the new Compact Overlay feature that is coming in the Creators Update.
