Question

Desktop sharing

I'm writing to report a recent change in the screen-sharing functionality within Zoom. Previously, I was able to seamlessly share my entire desktop screen during meetings, which greatly enhanced my productivity. However, for the past few months, this option has been limited to partial screen sharing. For example, if I'm sharing a Google Doc and then want to present something from my desktop, I have to stop sharing the Google Doc to switch to the other document.

This limitation is causing significant disruptions to my workflow as I'm constantly having to stop sharing my screen to access different documents or applications. I've noticed that several other users are experiencing the same issue.

I would like to inquire if there is a solution or workaround to restore the full-screen sharing capability. Is this a known bug or a deliberate change in the software?
